Property Description for 427 Convent Ave

5%+ Cap Rate! User/Purchaser or Investor Friendly Opportunity

Welcome to the Sugar Hill Historic District of Hamilton Heights, a neighborhood filled with old growth trees and turn of the century townhouses sitting high above the valley of Central Harlem. Hamilton Heights is named after Alexander Hamilton, who built his home here. This is a neighborhood rich with history from jazz legends, the beautiful City College Campus and has 5 subway lines and 5 parks within a 10-minute walk of this 5-family townhouse.

The house, built in 1926 and renovated in 2016, is fully leased with market rate rents. On the garden level and parlor floor is a 3-bedroom, 3 bath duplex with high ceilings and exclusive access to the approximately 425 sq ft. garden and W/D. This can be used as an owner’s duplex- presently rented month to month. On the 3rd and 4th Floor are 2 Studios per floor. Setup sheet available on request.

The home has East and West Facing exposures that provide great natural light throughout the day and is located on a townhouse heavy section of the neighborhood- so even the garden level space gets great natural light not blocked by tall buildings. Low property taxes of just $647/month. Convent Avenue consists of mostly residential properties and the City College campus which limits vehicle traffic- so residents are treated to a much calmer, quieter and more desirable living experience.

All new building systems (boiler, roof, meters, etc) were installed when the building was renovated in 2016 and well maintained since. The house is built 16’ x 54’ on a lot that is 16’x85’. Gross Square Footage is 3,456 including the garden level.

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.
