Property Description for 509 West 149th Street, 1

History-rich, Sugar Hill 1920s brownstone duplex rental unit (features four fantastic fireplaces!) sits regally in the heart of Hamilton Heights. The home is located on a verdant, tree-lined street in proximity to impeccable train access. Step back into an earlier era, a time and space marked by garden and tree views. Whether it's the bold fireplaces, spiral staircase, soaring ceilings, or light-filled cavernous living spaces that win your heart, you feel a bit storybook magical in this brownstone first floor home. Once inside the edifice, gigantic, restored wooden doors in an impressive foyer capture your attention and welcome your arrival. Seductive spaciousness, fireplace, wooden shutters which rival museum worthiness relics, open to reveal gigantic windows, streaming sunlight to the south and north, (trees to the front on the street, and the garden views to the back.) Continue to the back to greet an open concept kitchen, dining space facing the garden, cooking island with massive wood butcher block counter for a chef's inventive space. Gorgeous hardwood floors, half bath and washer/dryer complete the downstairs space. The spiral metal staircase leads upstairs to a perfectly massive master room (can fit a king, desk and a chaise lounge for reading in front of the fireplace.) Amply sized second bedroom overlooking garden with enviable wardrobe space faces opposite down the hall. Home office nook, hardwood floors, tiled marble bathroom with claw foot tub completes the upstairs landing. A historic treasure awaits - come home! -Sorry no dogs. Cats ok.-

Hamilton Heights | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Primarily a residential neighborhood, Hamilton Heights has a mix of brownstones, walk-ups and older apartment buildings, together with more luxurious apartment and condo buildings situated along Riverside Drive. Known for being a working class neighborhood in the past, now there are many artists, teachers and actors making their homes in Hamilton Heights.  

Hamilton Heights has a diverse population that prides itself on being a tight-knit community, one where neighbors know and respect one another, work together on issues that confront the community, support each other in difficult times, and spend time together socializing at block and seasonal parties.

Although there are many types of public transportation available, the area subway stops may require a bit of a walk, so you will need to plan for this time in your commute.

Hamilton Heights has a definite family-oriented vibe, and there are many playgrounds and activities for children. Additionally, you can find child daycare at reasonable prices. Riverbank State Park has many activities and recreational opportunities geared toward children. 

Although there are plentiful places to shop for groceries, everything from the bigger national chains to the neighborhood bodegas and delis, they are starting to show the impact of gentrification in the higher prices they are charging, especially for organic products.
