Property Description for 547 West 147th Street, B-1
Live in one of Hamilton Heights's crown jewels, a 3 or possibly 4-bedroom, 1.5 bath apartment located on the second floor of a grand early Hamilton Heights elevator apartment building aptly named "Buckingham Palace." The home boasts 9.8-foot ceilings, bright and sunny south-facing separate living and dining rooms, a kitchen big enough to include a table, a maid's room with bath and one of the longest and widest internal hallways in upper Manhattan! Original details remain throughout and can be restored by the architecture-savvy buyer. Washer/Dryers in apartments are allowed, as are pets. Located in a bustling neighborhood amidst restaurants, bars and cafes, the property's future value is all-but guaranteed because of its location, inside the "Columbia Sandwich," lying just north of the two main Columbia Campuses from 116th to 133rd and south of the Columbia Medical Center on 168th Street. It's also a few blocks from City College, the #1 train at 145th Street, and the A, B, C, D trains on 147th St and St. Nicholas Ave. Easy access to Riverbank State Park, New York Presbyterian Hospital, George Washington Bridge, the Hudson River bikeway and Yeshiva University. HDFC income limits apply as follows: $96,624 for 1-2 people and $112,728 for 3 or more people. Financing available through Amalgamated Bank.

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.
