About this home
Perched on the top floor of a well-maintained cooperative on West 135th Street near Broadway, this thoughtfully renovated two-bedroom home offers an uncommon combination of light, privacy, storage, and value in the heart of Manhattanville/Hamilton Heights.
The apartment features a spacious living room ideal for both relaxing and entertaining, a generously sized primary bedroom, and a versatile second bedroom that can easily function as a nursery, home office, guest room, dressing room, or additional storage space. Exceptional closet space throughout includes two oversized closets in the primary bedroom, a large closet in the second bedroom, and an additional utility closet in the hall — a rare luxury in New York City living.
Located on the fifth and top floor, the apartment enjoys open sky views, abundant natural light, and a remarkable sense of quiet and privacy. With only one shared wall and no neighbors above, the home feels notably peaceful and insulated from city noise. From the windows, enjoy treetop views stretching toward the Hudson River and New Jersey — a perspective that gives the apartment an airy, elevated feel throughout the day.
The residence has been extensively renovated with a clean, timeless aesthetic. The windowed kitchen features brand-new stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, and classic white subway tile backsplash. The bathroom has also been fully updated with a new vanity, fixtures, and finishes. Hardwood floors run throughout the apartment.
The cooperative is exceptionally well cared for by an engaged ownership community committed to maintaining the building while keeping costs reasonable. Monthly maintenance is an unusually low $558.
Conveniently located just 1.5 blocks from the 1 train, with easy access to the A, B, and C lines as well, the apartment offers quick connections throughout Manhattan: approximately 13 minutes to the Upper West Side and Central Park, 15 minutes to Midtown, and 25–35 minutes downtown. City College is one block away, Columbia University is a short distance away, St. Nicholas Park is nearby, and the surrounding neighborhood offers a vibrant mix of restaurants, cafés, bars, and everyday conveniences — including grocery stores on and near the block, plus a 24-hour diner just half a block away.
Please note that the building is a walk-up. For buyers comfortable with stairs, the top-floor setting offers a worthwhile tradeoff: enhanced light, quiet, privacy, and a uniquely elevated sense of space rarely found at this price point in Manhattan.
Building is income restricted with an income cap of 120% of AMI
