Listing of the Day: Williamsbridge Rental

East 219 Street at Willett Avenue, 3 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom $1,500/month

This apartment is a three bedroom and is crazy cheap.

Williamsbridge isn't the most happening hood in the world, but this wouldn't be a bad split for three people trying to save a little dough. Williamsbridge is a very residential neighborhood in the north central Bronx. Not a lot of apartment buildings. You'd have some shopping down on Gun Hill Road and also on White Plains Road.

Right across the river is Woodlawn Cemetery (spooky!) and a bit further north and across the river is the Woodlawn neighborhood and all those imbibing and convivial Irish attitudes. You might even rub elbows with the rising star that is Cousin Tommy if you decide to cross the river and have a few pops.

Nothing too amazing about the apartment itself, but hey what do you want for $500/month per bedroom? On the other hand, there is nothing all that bad about the apartment either. For this price you might expect a converted meth lab or sex farm of some sort. But alas, the unit seems to be free from any nefarious past incarnations and ready for move in.

Transportation is really close - like a block to the 2/5 219th Street stop. You're also kinda sorta near the Williamsbridge Metro North stop on Gun Hill Road.
