Property Description for 601 West 138th Street, 5-C

PRICE DROP - Motivated Seller: Paradise off Broadway, right next to the subway - stunning fourth floor two bedroom, one bath apartment in an HDFC co-op in the exciting Hamilton Heights neighborhood of West Harlem. Completely renovated only one year ago, with an all-new kitchen and bath, down to the floors, and up to the ceiling with automated solar shades - all new everything! Panoramic eastern views from the large bedrooms, with expanded closets in the master and hall. This spacious home features beautifully redone light-ash wood floors throughout, all-new custom doors in the bedrooms and bath, and ceiling-height doors in the capacious closets. The sun-filled living room has four windows, centering the home.

This special home is move-in ready, with high ceilings, modern feel, and pre-war solidity. The all-new kitchen has an abundance of cabinets and spacious quartz counters, stainless-steel appliances with custom Carrara marble backsplash, and a waterfall island. The large bathroom, custom-tiled from floor-to-ceiling, has a glass-doored soaking tub with thermostatic rainfall shower system and retractable shower wand to luxuriate in after a stressful day. There is also a floating vanity and a dual-flush toilet. Both bedrooms feature large double closets, and the nearly 18 foot deep master bedroom features an additional built-in for extra storage. The unit also comes with WiFi-enabled AC units, pictured.

601 west 138th Street, positioned between Broadway and Riverside, right by the entrance to Riverbank State Park, is truly one of Uptown's best managed and well-maintained HDFC co-ops, and apartments rarely become available. The building permits 90% financing, has plentiful reserves, low maintenance, and laundry facilities located right on the first floor. All intercoms are being upgraded to video, and the lobbies and hallways have recently been redone. The low maintenance, full-time Superintendent, laundry and welcoming neighbors all add up to this residence being an exceptional place to call home. Just bring your toothbrush and Fido - pets welcome!

Nearby you will find Alexander Hamilton's former country estate, originally on the site of 302 Convent, which retains its bucolic appeal as an exquisite and essential enclave in a culturally-diverse community, with nearby CUNYs City College, Harlem School of Arts, Dance Theater of Harlem, Hamilton Grange Museum, and convenient shopping and restaurants. Close to A, B, C, D, & #1 trains (137th St. and 145 St.) and garage parking located nearby.

** Gross Income restricted to 120% of 2018 AMI: $87,720 for individuals, $100,200 for couples, $112,680 for families of three, and $125,160 for families of four. **

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.
