Property Description for 435 Convent Ave, 44

MASSIVE PRICE CUT = OPPORTUNITY/VALUE Rarely available, large pre-war apartment in a wonderful Hamilton Heights location.

Apt 44 in the storied Garrison Cooperative is a 4/5 bedroom + home office that was fully renovated in 2017 with restored historical details, an entirely new kitchen, hardwood floors, and updated electrical. Welcome home as you enter the wide hallway leading to an abundance of large sunny spaces. This gracious home features high ceilings, solid pre-war construction, new built-in book shelves and tons of sunny windows with open views onto a host of historic buildings and interesting architecture.

There are 2 historic full baths that have been beautifully maintained and the proper layout to expand or enhance if you desire, subject to board approval.

They do not build homes like this anymore.

The redesigned kitchen features a Liebherr refrigerator, a JennAir oven and gas range, JennAir dishwasher, and a double-basin Blanco engineered steel sink. Large working countertops and a pass-through to a comfortable seating counter for great conversations, full meals or working. The kitchen was designed for cooks - with lots of quality cabinets, drawers, outlets and great light.

Every room in the home is windowed and all of the windows were replaced in the last 15 years.

The Garrison is professionally managed and maintained. In fact, this is one of the oldest cooperatives in New York and the first Harlem cooperative. It is rich in Harlem history with luminaries past and present happy to call this building home, including Zora Neale Hurston. The building has a gorgeous updated old-style elevator, a live-in super, a large clean basement with laundry, free storage unit, bicycle racks, a meeting room and an outdoor garden and community grill reserved for residents. A recently installed electronic entry system allows you to open the front door from your mobile.

Located on prestigious Convent Avenue, you are five-minutes to express trains, a great supermarket and plenty of restaurant options. A post office, library, drugstore, wine shop and dry cleaners are all nearby for that wonderful NYC convenience. Parks, playgrounds and gardens add to the neighborhood appeal, just blocks from the Hamilton Grange and the Morris-Jumel Mansion.

If you are looking for modern conveniences in the middle of a historic gold mine, you’ve found it. Sorry, no dogs permitted.

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.
