Property Description for 258 Saint Nicholas Ave, 9-A

Welcome to The Dwyer Condominium. This ten-story doorman building is a reconstruction of a landmark warehouse. Built in 2008 with six lofts per floor, the building boasts 9 and half foot ceilings and uninterrupted walls of windows. The solid construction provides the utmost in privacy, creating a pin-drop quiet environment between floors and neighbors. Unit 9A is a sprawling, 1,331 square foot convertible 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom with bright, Southern-facing windows and a Juliet balcony adorned with French Doors. Picturesque views overlook South Harlem, the trees of Central Park, and Morningside Park, the beautiful architecture nearby Columbia University, and the skyscrapers in Midtown Manhattan. The current owner has kept the space thoughtfully configured as a 1 bedroom 2 bathroom. Each window has a through-wall PTAC heating/air conditioning unit beneath it, making conversion to a true 2 bedroom 2 bathroom a seamless opportunity. Entering the home, a large coat closet is conveniently located in the foyer, as well as the first of the full bathrooms. Further into the space is the recently renovated chef’s appointed kitchen, featuring new stainless-steel appliances, a 7.5 ft long quartz island, dishwasher and gas range. Adjacent to it is the newly installed Washer/Dryer. From there, the grand living room and primary bedroom make up another 1000 square feet or so. The entire apartment was recently repainted and the hardwood oak floors were refinished. The primary bedroom has dual closets, and an en-suite bathroom complete with large soaking tub. The building has a full-time doorman, live-in super, beautifully landscaped rooftop garden with tables and chairs, and bike storage. The location is sensational – it’s a short distance to Whole Foods and the Trader Joes slated to open soon. A few blocks away are the century-old Morningside Park, Central Park, and Columbia University’s main campus. The area is known for a worldwide variety of cuisines, and plenty of bars and coffee shops. The building is less than a block to a transportation hub, with 2 express and 2 local trains, getting you to Columbus Circle in a single stop. This is a sponsor owned unit, meaning there will be no board package or board approval. The building has a 25-year Tax Abatement

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.
