Northern Manhattan has an under-the-radar spot that some would consider the perfect neighborhood. Hudson Heights, which is set within the larger Washington Heights area, is home to nature, world-class cultural destinations, and a peaceful environment. Overlooking the Hudson River, it includes the highest natural point in Manhattan, set within Bennett Park. Nearby is Fort Tyron Park, which is one of the most show-stopping green areas in New York City and stretches over 67 acres. Within it is the Cloisters, an outpost of the Met focusing on Medieval art. Hudson Heights is on multiple subway and bus lines, which means this scenic spot is very convenient to Midtown Manhattan. Check out these prime Hudson Heights rentals under $3,000.
We’ve found a sunny option with both size and amenities — the dream combo. This one-bedroom is in a 2011-built building with a gym, live-in super, laundry, and on-site parking. The bedroom has large, western exposed windows, while the pass-through kitchen features stone countertops, wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a dishwasher. Hardwood floors give the airy space a polished feel, and there’s plenty of opportunities for outdoor time with both a building courtyard and roof deck.
Two sizable bedrooms make this one a winner. The co-op building overlooks Fort Tyron Park and offers bike storage and laundry, with a live-in super. The living area is large enough to accommodate both a living room and full dining area. The open concept kitchen gets great light and has a breakfast bar, granite counters, and a subway tile backsplash. If that’s not enough to leave you in serenity, the unit has every New Yorker’s dream — soundproofed windows.
This spacious studio has out of this world closet space (four!), charming archways, and built in shelving.

There are rich, hardwood floors throughout, with a herringbone pattern in the bedroom area, and the eat-in kitchen has all new countertops, custom cabinets, and appliances. With the lowest price on the list, this one’s a true gem.
Windows abound in this elegant one-bedroom, set in a striking high rise with an elevator and live-in super.
