The Columbia House is a new construction in New York, located in Manhattan’s Upper West Side. These apartments are spacious, featuring high ceilings and gas fireplaces. The kitchens are standard for newly built luxury condominiums and come with 36-inch Sub-Zero refrigerators, Viking self-cleaning stove ranges, Bosch dishwashers and Bosch washer and dryer sets.
The cabinetry is white, with an opal-type glass, making cabinet contents just barely visible. The apartments feature hardwood floors throughout, including the kitchen. The ample counter space doubles as a bar on one side.
The Columbia House features large bathrooms with porcelain sinks. The Jerusalem Gold marble flooring extends to the floors, walls and countertops. The bathroom is rounded out with a luxurious Bain Ultra deep soaking Jacuzzi tub and a separate steam stall shower.
Amenities at the Columbia House are fairly standard. Residents have access to a courtyard and storage room. A doorman is not needed, as residents use a private key to access the elevators. There is also a video intercom to communicate with guests and determine if they should be allowed into the building.
The Columbia House is located in the Valley/Cathedral Parkway section of Manhattan’s Upper West Side. With Columbia University just a walk away, the building is perfect for students. The building is just seven floors, making it quite small in comparison to other condominium buildings in the city. This size is ideal for privacy.
