An extraordinary find welcomes you to 563 West 139th Street in Hamilton Heights between Broadway and Hamilton Place. This property was once a horse and carriage house with stables. The original red brick facade with classic rectangular windows, original wood door entrance side door, and main door once entrance to the horse and carriage house currently is a glass entrance door to the travel and insurance business. The carriage house with a centrally located ornate arch still holds the hook fixture once used to pull up hay for horses. The house back in the day sat on the rear of what would have been the main grand residence or mansion facing Hamilton Place with a courtyard walkway between the horse carriage house and main grand residence. Today the courtyard is a parking lot and the mansion is a church. By the end of the Civil War spring 1865 horse carriages were only for the elite. This is an unique property and priced to sell for the right investor or private buyer wanting to own a piece of American history, Horse and Carriage Houses today in New York City are a rare find. This property has enormous potential, as a turnkey (currently a travel and insurance agency business and three apartment rentals) conversion to a modern single - family home with a private garage or building development with air rights included. The building next to the property is a six story building.

The property is two blocks away from the City College of New York, PS 192 Jacob Schiff Elementary School, various supermarkets and specialty stores.

Transportation is accessible using the IRT # 1 subway train on 137th Street and Broadway, MTA bus 4 and 5 bus line on Broadway and 100 and 101 bus line on Amsterdam Avenue. CASH OFFERS WELCOME!

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.
