Property Description for 1264 Amsterdam Ave, 6-B

**SHOWING UPDATE: OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY, APRIL 3 FROM 12:00 TO 1:30**
**2 BEDROOM/1 BATHROOM**
**CO-OP IN THE HEART OF MORNINGSIDE HEIGHTS/NOCO**
**EXTRAORDINARY VALUE**
**WILL NOT LAST**
**SADLY, NO DOGS ALLOWED**

Nestled in the heart of Morningside Heights/NOCO – this 2 bedroom/1 bathroom, top-floor, gem-of-an-apartment (located on the sixth floor, but with an easy five flight ascent) comes with space, style, and…wait for it…a shared roof with a raised PRIVATE DECK offering stunning open views.

This apartment is, without a doubt, an extraordinary find at an extraordinary price.

Upon entering, you’ll be charmed by the high ceilings, exposed brick, and dark hardwood floors that unite the design elements throughout the apartment. To your right, the master bedroom awaits with large closets, built-in cabinetry, and a large bright window. Further in, you’ll find a white-tiled bathroom complete with full-sized enclosed shower/tub, additional closets, and an open California-style kitchen with a cleverly designed countertop semi-island that separates the space from the adjacent living room. The living room proper is spacious, sunny (three large windows, facing east, let the light pour in), and roomy enough to accommodate both entertaining and dining areas comfortably. Off the living room, through a pair of charming French Doors, is the second bedroom – OR, use it as it is now, as a home office/den.

Directly above, with a separate entrance outside the unit, is a shared roof, equipped with your very own private raised deck surrounded by steps and railings (which you can decorate to your taste). The views of the city and treetops of Morningside Park are exhilarating, offering you a private piece of the sky.

In case the closet space inside the unit isn't enough, this apartment comes with a large, separate, private storage area in the basement.

The well-maintained building also has bike storage and a common laundry room. 1264 Amsterdam is a 100% solid, walk-up co-op with excellent financials. Co-purchasing and gifting are allowed; sadly, our canine comrades are not.

Regardless of what you call it - be it Morningside Heights or NoCo (North of Columbia) - the benefits of living in this delightful neighborhood are a given (and growing): world-class dining, landmark cultural sites, and an emerging high-end retail footprint.

Start with BBQ at Dinosaur, followed by a screening at The Magic Johnson Movie Theatre or a show at The Apollo, and, of course, end with dessert at Chokolat Patisserie and Cafe. Then, spend a sunny Saturday exploring Grant's Tomb, running along The Hudson, or just people-watching at the beautiful nearby campuses of Columbia and Barnard.

Virtually a hub of transportation for all points north and south, it's a mere two blocks away from the 1 Train and close to the A,B,C, and D Trains and multiple Bus Routes.

This apartment offers a unique opportunity to build a home in one of the most exciting neighborhoods the city has to offer. At this price, and with such low maintenance, you can be sure it won't be available for long.

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.
