Welcome to apartment #5 at the Morris Park Condominium at 467 West 163rd Street! Amazing opportunity to own a 2-3 bedroom, 2 bath condo with two private terraces with under $900 in common charges and real estate taxes with an abatement through June, 2032.

This boutique condominium has one apartment per floor with keyed elevator access and there is a common roof deck with expansive views including the midtown skyline.
Enjoy your generous-size open kitchen with stainless steel appliances, full-sized washer and vented dryer. The spacious living room gets glorious light thanks to the southern exposure with abundant sky. Adjacent to the living room is a dining area with access to the 2nd terrace - a perfect entertainment suite! This space easily converts to a legal 3rd bedroom or windowed home office. The extra-large primary bedroom has an ensuite bath and terrace access, perfect for enjoying morning coffee or tea. The entire apartment has been barely used and is in excellent condition. All light switches have dimmers. The apartment includes an additional storage space.
Located just one block from the updated C train station at 163rd Street and 5 blocks from the A and #1 subways at 168th Street & Broadway, this condominium is conveniently located 5 blocks from the renown New York- Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center which includes Columbia University Medical School. The recently upgraded and under-appreciated 119-acre Highbridge Park and its unique geology awaits you one block away. There's also a state-of-the-art playground and an outdoor gym and one of the city's largest outdoor pools. The restored Highbridge itself is a pedestrian way that spans the Harlem River, connecting Washington Heights to The Bronx.
For convenient food shopping there's a C Town market one block away and plenty of stores, restaurants and bakeries thanks to the three commercial arteries of Broadway, St. Nicholas and Amsterdam Avenues. There's also a community bookstore and a large community garden nearby. Local eateries and cafe's include the Fort Washington Public House, Salento Coffee House, Native Noodles, Las Palmas, Ramen Ku-Raku and Chelas.
Lower Washington Heights is a neighborhood of hidden treasures and distinctive architecture, and is becoming a destination with the Tony Awards coming to the spectacular United Palace Theatre in June! Three blocks away from 467 West 163rd Street is the Morris Jumel Mansion, Manhattan's oldest remaining free-standing house, and is a museum and historic site with unique events throughout the year. Due to its location on a hilly bluff with commanding views, it served as General George Washington's headquarters for 5 weeks during the fall of 1776 and later hosted President Washington's first cabinet dinner in 1790! Not familiar with the neighborhood, we'll take you on a private tour!
