About This Property
Turnkey 2 Bed / 2 Bath | Full-Service Condo | $134/Month Taxes
If you've been looking for a modern, full-service condo in Harlem without the compromises — this is it.
Unit 411 at The Aurum is a move-in ready 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence, with the kind of finishes and building amenities you'd expect to pay significantly more for. White Oak plank flooring sets the tone from the entry. The kitchen is lined with lacquered cabinetry and LED lighting, with a full stainless steel appliance package — fridge, microwave, stove, and dishwasher — and an open layout that flows naturally into a spacious living and dining area filled with light. Avenue-facing windows offer an open, elevated view of the neighborhood — the kind of perspective that makes the apartment feel larger and brighter than the floor plan suggests.
Both bedrooms are thoughtfully proportioned with generous closet space. The primary bath is finished with a glass stall shower, porcelain tile, and Kohler fixtures. The second bath features a Kohler soaking tub. An in-unit washer/dryer and dedicated storage add the kind of convenience that is rarely offered
The Aurum delivers a genuine full-service experience: 24-hour attended lobby, penthouse-level fitness center, residents' lounge and media room, bike room, package room, and two levels of furnished outdoor space complete with grilling stations for dining al fresco. Pets welcome.
Built in 2015 with 115 residences, The Aurum sits in the heart of Central Harlem — steps from the 2/3 at 135th Street, a short walk to the B/C, and A/B/C/D at 125th. Historic brownstones, new restaurants, and one of New York's most exciting neighborhoods are right outside your door.
Property taxes on this unit are approximately $134 per month, benefitting from a tax abatement that expires in 2043
. For a full-service building with these finishes at this price point — that number speaks for itself.
