Property Description for 425 Convent Ave

Beautifully Grand, Newly Renovated Brownstone Home with Garden in Historic Hamilton Heights.

Nestled in the coveted Sugar Hill section of historic Hamilton Heights, this exquisite brownstone on tree-lined Convent Avenue has undergone meticulous renovation, leaving it in pristine condition. Originally built in 1901, this impeccably preserved home seamlessly blends elegant original woodwork details with luxurious modern updates.

This charming townhome is ingeniously configured as a two-family property, featuring an Owner's triplex and a ground floor one-bedroom rental apartment with a private garden. Enjoy abundant natural light throughout the day, thanks to the East and West picture window exposures.

Explore the Owner's triplex by stepping onto the gorgeous parlor level floor, where a spacious living room with 11+-ft ceilings welcomes you. The foyer leads to a powder room, and beyond lies a masterfully designed chef's kitchen equipped with high-end Thermador Professional appliances and expansive countertops. Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors open to a dining deck overlooking the meticulously landscaped private garden.

Ascend to the second floor to discover the expansive primary suite, created by combining two bedrooms into an owner's private sleeping and dressing salon. This suite boasts an en-suite marble spa bath, a Bosch washer/dryer compartment, large walk-in closets and decorative fireplace. The top floor offers two more bedrooms with walk-in closets and a second renovated full bath.

The first floor houses a beautifully renovated 800 sq. ft. one-bedroom apartment with high ceilings, a decorative fireplace, a Bosch washer/dryer, a king-sized bedroom with ample closets, additional storage space, and a meticulously maintained 400 sq. ft. private garden. The current rental income stands at $38,400 annually ($3,200/month).

This unique and impressive brownstone residence is conveniently located just one block away from a gourmet supermarket, and within two blocks of the A/B/C/D subway lines on St. Nicholas Avenue and the #1 line on Broadway. The vibrant neighborhood of Hamilton Heights offers a variety of retail shops and restaurants along Amsterdam Avenue and Broadway; and nearby Riverside Park on the Hudson River provides an array of outdoor fun and activities.

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.
