Property Description for 640 West 139th Street, 26

Seize the opportunity to purchase a rare 3 Bedroom sponsor unit in an elevator building on Riverside Drive with low maintenance. Please note this is not an HDFC apartment.

Located in prime Hamilton Heights, this three bedroom apartment offers an amazing opportunity to buy into a pocket of Manhattan that is appreciating by the day.

This gut renovated unit has been completely renovated and restored. Upon entering you are welcomed by tall ceilings, a brand new windowed eat-in chefs kitchen equipped with a stainless steel cooking range, full sized double-door refrigerator, stainless steel dishwasher, washer/dryer hook up and convection microwave. The first two bedrooms are on either side of the central hall, providing separation and privacy. At the other end of the hall you reach the living room and master bedroom, which faces south and is pin-drop quiet. The fully tiled bathroom is also newly gut renovated. There are no load-bearing walls, so reconfiguration north to south of the space is fully achievable.

This coop offers a tremendous opportunity with great upside and is a great fit for a primary resident or investor. The building permits and offers the following: an unlimited subletting policy from day one after purchase, no board approval, pied-a-terre, co-purchasing, parental purchasing, gifting, in-building laundry, an on-site super and pets allowed.

640 West 139th Street is conveniently located close to every shopping need including restaurants, supermarkets, drugstores, and banks. Some of the neighborhood’s most exciting eateries, such as The Grange, Trufa, Harlem Public, and Home Sweet Harlem are located near your doorstep. It’s an ideal location for students: the building is located only a few blocks away from CUNY City College of New York, along with the newly acquired 17-acre expansion of Columbia University’s Manhattanville campus. Mass transit is readily available: on Broadway the 1 train is two blocks away and there are uptown and downtown buses on the avenue, and it’s not far to reach the A, B, C, and D lines. The location of the building allows for easy and quick access throughout Manhattan and the outer boroughs via the Henry Hudson Parkway, George Washington Bridge, and FDR Drive. The neighborhood offers several parks including St. Nicholas Park and the amazing Riverbank State Park, which runs along the Hudson River west of Hamilton Heights and is comprised of a double sized Olympic Pool, tennis and basketball courts, ice skating rink, running track, and playgrounds.

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.
