About This Property
Perched on a high floor of West Gate House, this bright, southwest-facing studio offers wonderful natural light, open sky, and a partial view of the iconic George Washington Bridge. Enjoy ever-changing skies and a sense of openness from this charming prewar home in the heart of Hudson Heights.
The thoughtfully arranged two-room layout features a separate dining area and a windowed kitchen, offering comfortable spaces for everyday living and entertaining. Freshly painted, the apartment features beautifully refinished hardwood floors, nine-foot ceilings, two generous closets, and original prewar architectural details. A windowed bathroom with classic white tile and an original deep soaking tub adds to the home's timeless character.
West Gate House is a well-maintained prewar cooperative offering the added appeal of low monthly maintenance, situated at the corner of Cabrini Boulevard and West 181st Street. Residents enjoy two beautifully landscaped garden courtyards, a live-in superintendent and porter, a modern laundry room, storage lockers, bicycle storage, well-maintained lobbies, and ButterflyMX video entry.
The location offers the best of Hudson Heights and Washington Heights, with an inviting mix of neighborhood restaurants, cafés, bakeries, specialty shops, grocery stores, and fitness options. Local favorites include Cabrini Wines & Spirits and Breakaway Café & Bike Shop, a popular gathering spot for cyclists heading across the George Washington Bridge to explore Route 9W and the Palisades in New Jersey.
Some of Manhattan's most beautiful green spaces are just moments away. Explore the winding paths of Fort Tryon Park, the magnificent Heather Garden, and The Met Cloisters. Nearby Fort Washington Park offers tennis courts, playing fields, running paths, and access to the Hudson River Greenway, stretching south along the waterfront to Battery Park.
Transportation is convenient, with the A and 1 subway lines, multiple bus routes, and the George Washington Bridge Bus Station nearby. NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center and City College are also within easy reach.
A wonderful opportunity to enjoy classic prewar charm, abundant natural light, low monthly maintenance, and the distinctive neighborhood character that makes Hudson Heights such a special place to call home.
