Conveniently located near Columbia University and only one block from Riverside Park, this two-bedroom in Morningside Heights is sunny, flexible, and recently upgraded. It’s in an HDFC co-op building at 175 Claremont Avenue so income restrictions will apply, but if you qualify, the apartment is a sound investment at $595,000.
Located on the fifth floor, the apartment benefits from high ceilings and six large windows throughout (including in the kitchen and bathroom), which let lots of natural light in. The downside is that five of those windows face south and in this case, that exposure comes with views of a neighboring brick wall. Next to the living room, a separate kitchen has been recently renovated and features a mix of custom cabinets and open shelving, exposed brick, a breakfast bar, and a dishwasher.
The linear layout has two bedrooms at each end—one is right by the entrance and the other is accessible through French doors in the living room. Both bedrooms offer multiple storage solutions—including built-ins and overhead options—and could be converted into a home office or library.
The six-story, pre-war building has an elevator, live-in super, laundry room, gym, and bike storage.
