From the original listing · ZillowShow

Huge 4BR/2BA in Prewar Elevator + Laundry Building Hamilton Heights, 10031

Four real bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and an elevator and laundry in the building. In Hamilton Heights that combo is hard to find. Four roommates means four people who don't have to share one bathroom or haul laundry down the block.

THE BUILDING Classic 1908 prewar brick elevator building on a corner, with rounded bay fronts and great old-New-York character. Laundry is on site, so there's no hauling bags to a laundromat.

THE BLOCK Hamilton Place is one of Uptown's hidden gems. It's a quiet, tree-lined diagonal street that feels tucked away, but Broadway and Amsterdam are right there. Alexander Hamilton Playground is just up the block.

GETTING AROUND 1 train at 137th StCity College, about 3 blocks away A/B/C/D express at 145th St M4, M5, M100, and M101 buses nearby Midtown is a straight shot down the West Side.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD City College is around the corner, and Columbia's Manhattanville campus is just south Riverbank State Park has an Olympic-size pool, a track, and athletic fields, plus Riverside Park and Hudson River sunsets Hamilton Grange, Alexander Hamilton's own home, is preserved in nearby St. Nicholas Park. Yes, that Hamilton. The historic Sugar Hill and Hamilton Heights Historic District blocks have stunning brownstones and Beaux-Arts architecture Cafes, restaurants, and grocery stores line Broadway and Amsterdam
