This 1 bedroom apartment is on the second floor (considered 1st by Europeans) of a typical and authentic 4-story brownstone building in Hamilton Heights, in the upper part of Manhattan, New York. It offers a double exposure, towards north on the street and south on a garden.
The apartment has vintage furniture in keeping with the building's old world feel. It's adorned with paintings throughout the rental and its living-room features hardwood floors and a massive fireplace with a large mirror on top of it, neatly combined with stylish designer furniture. The reception area is furnished with a comfortable sofa, two seats and a wooden coffee table just in front of two floor-to-ceiling windows to enjoy natural daylight. As for the open kitchen, it features the major appliances, utensils you might need, a large countertop to cook and sizeable wooden cupboards matching the apartment's style. The bedroom also has an original fireplace, a queen bed, several closet and drawer spaces and overlooks a garden.
On West 142nd Street and Broadway, this rental is located in a thoroughfare district with plenty of restaurants and especially exotic ones! As for major attractions, you can visit the Hamilton Grange National Memorial, 4 blocks from you, or take a stroll to Riverside State Park and its sports complex by the Hudson River, only 0.4 mile (640 meters) away. Four blocks from the City College of New York (CUNY) and a mile (1.6 km) or 3 subway stops from Columbia University, this apartment is a great place to live in for college students! Indeed, the 145th Street subway station, four blocks from your brownstone, can take anywhere on the 1 line and thus anywhere in New York City via connection(s)! Central Park and the Upper West Side are for instance only 4 stops away! However our advice is to check this neighborhood out; how about going to a Baptist Church and discovering what a Sunday gospel mass really is or have a taste of soul food or visit one of the many historic sites nearby, such as George Washington's headquarters!

The furniture in the apartment was really dated, the window frames do really need a change and the stairs and its landing need a makeover. I would have appreciated it if an airconditioner was installed in the mind- boggling heat of June. |

Thanks for your review Uche. The apartment is located in a brownstone and has vintage furniture in keeping with the building's old feel. I have checked that the staircase going up to the higher floor is fine. |
