Description
Renovated One Bedroom at The MonteCristo
Welcome to Apartment 2H, a beautifully renovated corner one-bedroom residence at The MonteCristo, a well-maintained HDFC cooperative located on a tree-lined block bordering the Mount Morris Park Historic District.
This bright and inviting home blends prewar character with modern updates. Western and northern exposures provide excellent natural light throughout the day, while west-facing windows showcase beautiful sunset views. Interior features include 9’4” ceilings, hardwood floors, generous closet space, a renovated windowed kitchen, and a renovated windowed bathroom.
Built in 1910, The MonteCristo is an intimate elevator cooperative with just 51 residences and a full-time superintendent. Monthly maintenance of only $490 includes heat and hot water, offering exceptional value in one of Harlem’s most desirable neighborhoods.
Ideally situated near Harlem’s vibrant 125th Street corridor, residents enjoy convenient access to Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Target, restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and cultural destinations including the Apollo Theater, the Victoria Theater, and the new Studio Museum in Harlem. Marcus Garvey Park, Morningside Park, and Central Park are all nearby, while Columbia University’s expanding Manhattanville campus and the 125th Street transportation hub provide easy access throughout Manhattan and beyond via the 2, 3, A, B, C, and D subway lines.
This HDFC cooperative is intended for primary residence ownership and is subject to board approval. Purchasers must meet HDFC income eligibility requirements (120% AMI).
Offering corner exposures, tasteful renovations, low monthly carrying costs, and an exceptional Harlem location, Apartment 2H presents a rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready home in one of Upper Manhattan’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
