The kitchen and bathroom were renovated to the studs in 2017, with all-new plumbing and an upgraded electrical breaker panel. The spacious, windowed kitchen opens to the living room through a generous pass-through breakfast bar with counter seating. Wraparound Belgian Blue PentalQuartz countertops provide plenty of workspace, while semi-custom cabinetry offers abundant storage with soft-close doors and drawers. Italian porcelain floor tile and a custom tiled accent wall complete the space. As part of the renovation, the original dumbwaiter was completely removed and the space repurposed as a custom beverage station. Vintage-inspired details, adjustable LED lighting, and an under-counter wine refrigerator make it both functional and distinctive. The kitchen also features updated stainless-steel appliances, all serviced in January 2026. The renovated bathroom retains its original Deco-era tub and features premium Kohler and Toto fixtures along with a European-style shower set. Storage has been thoughtfully maximized throughout the apartment. The living room features custom floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves with adjustable shelving. A double-width hallway closet has adjustable floor-to-ceiling shelving and its own switched light, while the bedroom closet was custom rebuilt for double-height hanging. Additional improvements include a new living room ceiling fan installed in July 2026, replacement kitchen windows in 2026 and bedroom windows in 2025, and a new apartment entry door installed in 2017. Original hardwood floors throughout preserve the warmth and character of the prewar home while complementing its modern updates. West Gate House is a well-maintained prewar cooperative at Cabrini Boulevard and West 181st Street. Building amenities include a live-in superintendent and porter, two landscaped garden courtyards, a modern laundry room, storage lockers, bike storage, well-maintained lobbies, and ButterflyMX entry. The location puts the best of Hudson Heights and Washington Heights close at hand. The A and 1 subway lines, multiple bus routes, and the George Washington Bridge Bus Station provide convenient transportation options. Nearby are restaurants, bakeries, coffee shops, fitness options, grocers, and specialty stores. Neighborhood favorites include Cabrini Wines & Spirits and Breakaway Café & Bike Shop, a unique café and bicycle shop popular with local cyclists and riders heading across the George Washington Bridge to ride Route 9W and the Palisades in New Jersey. NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center and City College are also within easy reach. Fort Tryon Park, The Met Cloisters, and the Heather Garden are nearby.

Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices. | Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2A (Apartment) | 1 | — | $375,000 | — | December 9, 2025 | City record · MLS | | 54 (Apartment) | 1 | 600 | $380,000 | $633/ft² | June 10, 2025 | City record · MLS | | 69 (Apartment) | 2 | — | $999,995 | — | January 31, 2024 | City record · MLS | | 2A (Apartment) | — | — | $310,000 | — | February 9, 2023 | City record | | 66 (Apartment) | 2 | — | $510,000 | — | May 10, 2022 | City record · MLS | | 56/58 (Apartment) | 3 | 1,500 | $1,100,000 | $733/ft² | November 3, 2021 | MLS | Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $395,000 - **Median sold price**: $442,200 - **Difference**: -$47,200 (-10.7%) - **Comparable sales**: 36 - **Sales from**: October 2024 – June 2026 - **Middle half of those sales**: $398,000 – $515,000 Based on co-op one-bedroom sales in Hudson Heights. Square footage is recorded for only 10 of these 36 sales (28%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest. This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Hudson Heights instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 95.4% (34 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 82% (34 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 102 days (34 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 95 days (34 sales) Based on co-op one-bedroom sales in Hudson Heights with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric. These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. ### Price trend Median sale price, co-op one-bedroom sales in Hudson Heights | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2016 | $494,500 | 16 | | 2017 | $474,861 | 30 | | 2018 | $468,750 | 30 | | 2019 | $421,000 | 18 | | 2020 | $450,000 | 17 | | 2021 | $493,500 | 36 | | 2022 | $480,000 | 29 | | 2023 | $437,500 | 30 | | 2024 | $399,000 | 27 | | 2025 | $434,700 | 18 | | 2026 YTD | $445,000 | 14 | Based on recorded co-op one-bedroom sales in Hudson Heights. 2026 is year-to-date. Sales data through June 2026. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
