CASTLE ON CONVENT…Located on the picturesque tree-lined corner of Convent Avenue and W 144th Street this Queen Anne showpiece with its medieval facade dominated by a corner tower with a faceted conical cap is a visual delight. The landmarked blocks of Hamilton Heights are some of the most under-appreciated blocks in the city as the streetscapes transport one to an era when this enclave served as the country estates of Manhattan’s wealthy. This is a unique opportunity as corner buildings rarely become available in the area.
336 Convent is a four (4) story multi-unit building that was originally built in 1892 through the committee of William De Forest Jr. by architect Robert Dry. The house measures 25′ × 60′ and sits on a lot that is 25′ × 95′. Currently, the brownstone consists of 7 apartments which range in size from studios to two (2) bedroom apartments all with their own distinctive character. The units are all free-market. Great investment opportunity to purchase in a burgeoning neighborhood that is conveniently located just north of the historic City College campus and two short train stops away from Columbia. Call or e-mail us today for a special opportunity to own one of the most dazzling houses in Hamilton Heights!
