Property Description for 526 West 143rd Street

NEW PRICE ADJUSTMENT - Contract Fell-Through - Contracted Buyer Failed to Close - Outstanding Inspection Report - Big Savings only Minor Repairs Needed.






Presented for the first time in nearly a generation, this unique and stately townhouse, once coveted by a major home and garden magazine who offered the owner an opportunity to feature the property in its magazine, can now be yours, including the concord grapevine in the garden.

The home features all the original intricate woodworking details common among the early 20th century architects for the elites at the time. Additionally the house seems to have a remarkable benefit rarely found pre-remodeled townhouses, that of, very little wear and tear.

A triplex over a one bedroom, it was once a single family layout which has been modified every so slightly by a staircase door to create the garden apartment. So conversion back to a single family house is equally as easy and simple. Thus, access to the house, including the cellar is available from the ground level garden apartment.

Another striking feature of the house is upon entering the home from the parlor level (second floor) you are struck immediately in the foyer with the remarkable rich, stately and attractive wood-workings, followed by an entertainment and library area. A sky-light create a light-well and natural lighting throughout the entire home. The additional floors greet you with a sensible and predictable four bedroom with full-bathroom and fireplaces with iron ornate doors for concealment and tucking away.

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.
