HOUSE LIVING - IN MANHATTAN! If you've been looking for a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle of NYC without breaking the bank, here you have it: a lovely, generously proportioned 2BR/1.5BA garden apartment in an owner-occupied two-family house located on an adorable, quiet tree-lined block in a little known area of Manhattan called Marble Hill - the northernmost neighborhood of the borough! The spacious apartment has a quirky yet functional layout, especially for those who are interested in a share: the two bedrooms are on opposite ends of the apartment, and each has its own bathroom. The charming kitchen with wood-trimmed white cabinetry and white appliances is open to the expansive (dining) foyer/living room combo, making entertaining convenient. Both bathrooms have been updated; one is a powder room, the other a full bathroom with a stand-in shower. With primarily southern exposures, the apartment gets beautiful light and has charming garden views. As a bonus, you have a large private deck - a serene oasis after a hard day's work perfect for grilling and evening cocktails! Note that there's a long staircase going down from the street to the garden (entrance) level. Transportation options are fabulous with Metro North and 1 train just minutes away; the Riverdale express buses and the A train are also within a quick walk. The River Plaza shopping center with Target, Marshall's, Planet Fitness, Starbucks etc. is only a few minutes away, and both Kingsbridge and Inwood amenities are within a short walk. The apartment is available immediately. Heat & hot water are included; g&e and other utilities are extra. $20 app fee/applicant.
