Property Description for 509 West 122nd Street, 18
Move right into a comfortable, spacious prewar apartment in vibrant Morningside Heights that awaits your personal touch! Currently configured as a 3 bedroom 1 bath, the versatile layout can easily be transformed into a 2 bedroom if desired with a huge living room. This affords an excellent opportunity for the buyer to renovate and customize the space to suit their taste and needs. Positioned on the 4th floor of the 6-story building, the residence is brightened by large sun-filled windows facing north, south and east. A gracious foyer hall greets your arrival, with a full windowed bath and roomy windowed kitchen at right,
continuing on to long gallery accessing the bedrooms and living area. Interiors afford a spacious feel and comfortable flow, with distinct private areas, beautiful hardwood floors throughout, and generous closet space for storage.

The financially-sound elevator building offers low maintenance, friendly neighbors, a part-time super, onsite laundry, bike storage, and storage bins for a fee. The location is great, on a quiet 2-way tree-lined street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue, commonly referred to as "Seminary Row" Right nearby is Columbia University, Barnard College, Teacher's College, and Manhattan School of Music, as well as beautiful Morningside, Riverside and Hudson River Parks.

Morningside Heights | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Due to the large number of institutes of higher learning that are housed within its borders, most notably Columbia University, Morningside Heights has a very definite college-town vibe. It has been dubbed the “Academic Acropolis,” both for the large number of schools and for the fact that the neighborhood is built high atop the Manhattan schist bluffs that are the geological bedrock of NYC. From this vantage point, which is the highest point of land in all of Manhattan, you can take in stunning views of upper Manhattan and the Hudson River. Sunsets are especially breathtaking from Riverside Park.
Walk through Morningside Heights and you’ll see a diverse population, especially when the schools are in session. It has a generally quiet atmosphere, bounded by large green spaces, dotted with small cafes, specialty stores, and restaurants that offer all manner of international cuisine. There is a modest nightlife consisting of intimate bars and small musical venues, many of which are open to the wee hours of the morning, and frequented by students.
Housing is primarily pre-war buildings that have larger apartments and beautiful architecture clustered around Broadway. You can find affordable walk-ups in low-rise buildings on the side streets. Many of the residential buildings in the area actually are owned by Columbia University.
