Description

This rental is the perfect home for you, right in the middle of a beautiful neighborhood on a serene brownstone block. It can be rented FURNISHED OR UNFURNISHED. When you enter the parlor floor of this townhome, you will be taken aback by the high ceilings and the beauty of the restored architectural details throughout this stately townhome. The sun beams brightly through the floor-to-ceiling southern windows, and the large pocket doors are wonderful architectural treasures. The parlor floor, which has the living room, dining room and powder room, flows straight through to the state of the art kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances, marble countertops, a large island with breakfast bar, and back deck for dining. Off the back deck is the staircase leading down to this home's lush and charming private garden, replete with outdoor furniture and grill. This spacious triplex home boasts five gracious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a powder room, and lounging areas throughout. Each of the upper floors has two bedrooms and a full bathroom, with the top floor also housing the home's home office or 5th bedroom. The middle floor contains a huge dressing area and washer/dryer. The space lends itself perfectly to privacy for a work-from-home lifestyle or a warmly-appointed place to hang your hat at the end of a busy day in the city. The decorative fireplaces elegantly center many of the rooms. Central Harlem is considered the new uptown Village. People from all walks of life have made Central Harlem their homestead; its the perfect place to live and visit. Central Harlem has become the melting pot of multiculturalism. You are a stones throw away from Blues, Jazz, and Gospel music. Whole Foods is moments away, as are the famed Apollo Theatre, and iconic restaurants like Sylvias and the Red Rooster. The nearby transportation is great, including the A, B, C, and D subway lines, as well as M2 and M3 bus lines. LEASE TERM IS FLEXIBLE. CAN BE SHORT TERM (3 MONTHS) OR LONG TERM (UP TO 3 YEARS).

Central Harlem is the cultural and historic soul of Upper Manhattan. Known for its grand boulevards like Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd and its rich jazz heritage, the neighborhood offers an active urban lifestyle. The real estate market is a mix of beautifully preserved 19th-century brownstones, value-driven HDFC cooperatives, and a surge of modern luxury condominiums that offer contemporary amenities near the 125th Street retail corridor.
