Property Description for 545 West 111th Street, 10-E

This sunny high floor convertible 2 bedroom is located in one of Morningside Heights' most distinguished and architecturally significant buildings. The elevator door opens to skylights and a renovated landing. The apartment has a wonderfully flexible layout and offers amazing light through oversized south and west facing windows. From the foyer, which can also serve as a study, the hallway leads to the living-dining area that opens seamlessly to the open and nicely updated kitchen. The kitchen has a very large window ideal for the placement of a breakfast counter with stools. The bedroom has tall and deep closets and an enormous window. The large living room is lovely as is or could easily be converted to a master bedroom. The tiled windowed bathroom is in excellent condition. There are high ceilings throughout the apartment and excellent light throughout the day. The high floor E line is highly sought after but is rarely available.

545 West 111th Street has a beautifully renovated grand marble lobby and the building is pet friendly. The building has a terrific staff, including a 24 hour doorman and a live-in super. There is also a stunning roof deck and a brand new fitness room. Ideally located, 545 West 111 is steps to the subway and crosstown buses, West Side Market, Community Food and Drink, the Hungarian Pastry Shop and Riverside Park. Pieds a terre are permitted, as are washers and dryers.

Morningside Heights | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Due to the large number of institutes of higher learning that are housed within its borders, most notably Columbia University, Morningside Heights has a very definite college-town vibe. It has been dubbed the “Academic Acropolis,” both for the large number of schools and for the fact that the neighborhood is built high atop the Manhattan schist bluffs that are the geological bedrock of NYC. From this vantage point, which is the highest point of land in all of Manhattan, you can take in stunning views of upper Manhattan and the Hudson River. Sunsets are especially breathtaking from Riverside Park.

Walk through Morningside Heights and you’ll see a diverse population, especially when the schools are in session. It has a generally quiet atmosphere, bounded by large green spaces, dotted with small cafes, specialty stores, and restaurants that offer all manner of international cuisine. There is a modest nightlife consisting of intimate bars and small musical venues, many of which are open to the wee hours of the morning, and frequented by students.

Housing is primarily pre-war buildings that have larger apartments and beautiful architecture clustered around Broadway. You can find affordable walk-ups in low-rise buildings on the side streets. Many of the residential buildings in the area actually are owned by Columbia University.
