What makes Fordham Hill Oval the premier residential destination in University Heights?
Known as the “Village in the City,” Fordham Hill Oval is a secure, gated community of nine residential towers surrounded by private greenspace, 24/7 security, and an “all-in” lifestyle that is rare in the New York market.

A View from the Top
To truly understand the appeal of the Heights, you have to experience the “sanctuary” feel of our listing. Unit 7H is a bright, open 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence that captures the very best of this hilltop location.
Upon entry, you are immediately greeted by a massive living space drenched in natural light. The windows span the entire length of the far wall, offering a stunning 7th-floor perspective over the University Heights neighborhood. The focal point? A breathtaking view of the landmarked St. Nicholas of Tolentine Church. It’s a peaceful, quiet vantage point that makes you feel miles away from the city’s hustle while staying right in the heart of it.

Versatility and Modern Upgrades
In today’s market, a flexible floor plan is the ultimate luxury. Unit 7H offers an open layout that can be optimized for a large dining table, a dedicated home office, and a full living room set. The kitchen is a storage lover’s dream, featuring a dishwasher, a pantry closet, and a custom-built hutch.
Peace of mind comes standard here: the electrical panel has been recently upgraded, and a brand-new heating system has been installed, ensuring the home is as efficient as it is beautiful.

The “All-In” Financial Advantage
In a market where monthly costs are a top priority, Fordham Hill Oval offers a value proposition that is hard to beat. The monthly maintenance here is truly comprehensive, covering:
- Electric, Cooking Gas, Heat, and Hot Water
- Basic Cable and High-Speed Internet Package
For a buyer looking at a spacious home, this predictability is a game-changer. It allows you to enjoy a full-service building—complete with a 24-hour security force, fitness center, playground, and community room—without the “hidden” utility costs found in other co-ops.
Connected to the Core
Location is everything. Fordham Hill Oval is perfectly positioned between the 4 train at Fordham Road and the Major Deegan Expressway. Whether you’re heading into Manhattan, out to Queens, or north to Westchester and Upstate New York, your commute is effortless.

Beyond the Gated Entry
Fordham Hill Oval remains one of the city’s best-kept secrets because the people who live here tend to stay here. Unit 7H isn’t just a listing; it’s an entry point into a community that prioritizes quietude and “financial sanity” in an increasingly loud market.
