Property Description for 145 Morningside Ave, 3-B

Looking for turnkey HDFC? This sweet home is a truly special opportunity, ideally located and beautifully renovated. A 2BR conversion (legal one bedroom), presently set up for deep slumbers in the queen size bedroom and sun flooded hours in the work-from-home office or second bedroom, Unit 3B has been well-loved and wisely renovated, offering a modern renovation including a complete gut of bath and kitchen — the latter featuring stainless steel appliances, including dishwasher, a double-wide fridge, island with breakfast bar, copious counter space and cabinetry augmented by a full 5x5 pantry closet. A generous entry foyer with two large closets supplements the storage, and offers a beautiful sense of flow. The spacious primary bedroom has been ingeniously converted, with wall-to-wall closets, built-in bureau and hanging/shelf storage, as well as transom windows to bring in gentle morning light. The second bedroom or home office has two large east-facing windows and makes a peaceful, encouraging workspace, guest room, or child's room. And the large living room has plenty of space for entertaining and relaxing with dedicated spaces for lounging and dining (or, as you see, running a very bright and playful homeschool!). 145 Morningside is a well-kept, community-oriented building with a beautifully landscaped common garden — where you can read, play, barbecue, and be together with friends to your heart's content — plus a laundry room and bike storage. Small pets are welcome (dogs case-by-case – no aggressive breeds) and the board is friendly and responsive. Ideally located between 125th and 126th streets, you have the world's easiest park, playground, and subway access (A/B/C/D just a block away, 1 a few blocks further), while also enjoying an easeful tranquility in your quiet — really, quiet! — east-facing apartment with garden views. 145 Morningside is an HDFC co-op with an income cap of 120% of AMI, and a flip tax of 25% of gross profit, payable by the seller. Subletting is allowed with tight restrictions (the subletter must also meet income limits, and the maximum sublet is 18 months out of every five years). The 2021 income limits by family size are as follows: 1 person: $100,320 2 people: $114,600 3 people: $128,880 This special home is made for longterm happiness, and showing by appointment now — reach out to schedule your private viewing.

Harlem | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The neighborhood called West Harlem by the locals is known as Manhattanville to neighborhood newcomers. The area is culturally diverse and might be considered a microcosm of the city as a whole. 

Columbia University has recently expanded into the area, which is attracting student residents from all over the world. Together with students from the City College of New York and young professionals fleeing higher prices in other neighborhoods, this influx of younger residents has brought with it more restaurants and bars on W 125th Street to serve this clientele. There are also new ventures, like a rock-climbing gym, to cater to the interests of these students and young professionals. At the same time, there are many small, family-owned shops and restaurants that have been anchors of the neighborhood for multiple generations.

The area has been through a housing upgrade, as older properties have been renovated and abandoned properties have been razed to make room for new development. There are still reasonably priced apartments available. Young professionals are finding that there is a certain cachet to living in West Harlem. It provides a convenient commute to the city and all of its amenities, while providing a sense of escape at the end of a long work day.

While rentals are popular with the student population, the young professionals are delighted to find pre-war brownstones, pre-war co-ops (including some income-capped HDFCs for lower- and middle-income buyers), and post-war condos that they can afford, although prices are rising. Some new low-rise developments, sporting virtual doormen and desired amenities, are cropping up.
