340 Haven Avenue #5-T

Welcome home! Living in Lafayette Gardens is your chance to spend time in the best courtyard in Manhattan surrounded by its ever-blossoming flora plus an herb garden. Teak, cushioned furniture and tables adorn these courtyards awaiting your morning coffee, relaxing with a glass of wine, or dinner with friends. Maybe get some work done, 'cause there’s WiFi. Apt. 5T is one of the largest one bedrooms in Lafayette Gardens, boasting hardwood floors throughout and a large dining area open to the east-facing living room. Double-exposure, windowed kitchen features wood cabinets, granite counters, General Electric oven and microwave, and a large fridge and dishwasher. The windowed bathroom is a plus. New windows were installed three years ago. GAS, ELECTRIC, HEAT & HOT WATER are included in the low maintenance. Impeccably maintained building with a real sense of community among the residents. L.G. has a live-in super, a part-time doorman (4PM-12AM), a package room, laundry room, a residents' library, and BuildingLink.com (a cloud-based system for monitoring package delivery, service orders, and resident communication). Pet friendly, people friendly, with a proactive, progressive Board. The building also has underground parking (wait list), additional storage, and bike rooms available for additional monthly fees. The A train is 3 blocks away and the 1 train is about 6 blocks away. Reach multiple buses, Citi-bike stations, and car share pickups with just a short walk. There are great restaurants, wine shops, coffee shops, dog runs, and supermarkets, as well as breathtaking views of the Hudson and the New Jersey Palisades any time you step outside. New York Presbyterian Hospital is within walking distance, and City College, and Columbia University are close as well. Visit the nearby Met Cloisters and Heather Garden at Fort Tryon Park or head down to Fort Washington Park to the Hudson River where you will find the Little Red Lighthouse, tennis courts, soccer, and baseball fields, running trails, and a bike path that is traffic-free all the way down the west side of Manhattan to Battery Park. Close to the George Washington Bridge Terminal and its shopping mall with bus service to New Jersey. The newly built North walk-way over the bridge gives you very easy walking or biking access to Ft. Lee, NJ and its parks. *By Appointment Only.
