501 West 123rd Street, 16-D

An open horizon. Over acres of gardens. Room to exhale. Glorious morning sunshine, expansive skyline views, and approximately 950 square feet to call your own. At 501 West 123rd Street, Apartment 16D, the sense of openness begins at your windows and extends into the landscaped grounds of Morningside Gardens, close to Columbia University. This spacious two-bedroom home features oversized east-facing windows, ceilings over nine feet, and 6 closets. There’s room for dinner with friends, a dedicated workspace, and furniture you love without “squeezing” it in. Manhattan has a reputation for making you compromise on space. Apparently, 16D didn’t get the memo. The kitchen features custom cabinetry and GE Profile appliances. The primary bedroom includes thoughtfully fitted closets with sliding glass doors and pull-out drawers, while the second bedroom offers flexibility for guests, work, or everyday living. The main bathroom has custom tile and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. Within Morningside Gardens, mature trees, flowering gardens, and winding paths create a leafy retreat from the city’s pace. Find a favorite garden bench, spend an afternoon in the ceramics studio, or bring a project to life in the woodworking shop. Here, the appeal extends well beyond your apartment. Columbia University is close by, along with Barnard College and Manhattan School of Music. Enjoy the cafés, restaurants, and cultural life of Morningside Heights, with Morningside Park and Riverside Park nearby.
