About This Property

IN HISTORIC HARLEM, A BROWNSTONE IN THREE ACTS

Three distinct residences, a private garden, and the rare flexibility to make a home here while the other residences provide income.

Owner’s Duplex

The parlor and garden levels unfold as a two-bedroom owner’s duplex. At the front, a decorative fireplace gives the parlor its quiet center, with the kitchen and office nearby. The parlor level also holds a full bath with a soaking tub and shower combination, and a primary bedroom that opens onto a balcony. Downstairs, the garden level includes a second bedroom, an office or guest room, and a media room that opens to the private garden. A tiled bath with a walk-in shower completes the floor.

Third Floor

Above, a floor-through one-bedroom residence is arranged around a light-filled, south-facing living room with three oversized windows, treetop views, and a decorative fireplace. The kitchen sits just beyond, while the bedroom offers a quieter retreat with a fireplace of its own. A vintage claw-foot tub adds a touch of old-world character to the bathroom.

Fourth Floor

At the top of the stairs, a skylight in the hallway just outside the apartment’s front door brings light to the floor and makes the approach feel especially inviting. Inside, the two-bedroom residence opens into a living and dining area anchored by a decorative fireplace. At the rear, a private north-facing terrace looks out over the neighborhood’s trees and rooftops.

Neighborhood

Marcus Garvey Park and the northern end of Central Park are close by, while Harlem’s restaurants and cultural destinations give the neighborhood its unmistakable rhythm. Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and public transportation are all within a few blocks, keeping daily errands and citywide connections close at hand. Whether enjoyed as a townhouse with rental income or held as an investment, the property offers a rare chance to make a home in one of Manhattan’s most storied neighborhoods.
