Overview of The Ellington House at 13 West 106th Street

The Ellington House is an HDFC walk up cooperative located at 13-19 West 106th Street on the Upper West Side, half a block from Central Park. The property comprises 54 units spread across four connected buildings, offering affordable housing with income restrictions currently capped at $64,528 for households of up to two people.

The pre war buildings retain original character details including hardwood floors, high ceilings over 9 feet, and large windows. Many units offer the potential to expose original brick walls. As a walk up property without elevator service, top floor apartments benefit from additional ceiling height and natural light. Units are typically sold as is, requiring renovation work from buyers willing to undertake substantial updates.

The building offers basic amenities including laundry facilities in the basement and a pet friendly policy. A 20% flip tax applies to the profit from any sale. The location provides convenient access to Central Park and the full range of Upper West Side neighborhood amenities, making it an affordable entry point into one of Manhattan's most established residential areas.
