The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, a large alcove ideal for library or home office, and two closets--including a massive walk-in. The bedrooms are on opposite ends of the apartment and each floor in the building has only one apartment, providing ultimate privacy in this charming 4-unit condominium. This home boasts central heat and air conditioning, hardwood floors throughout, and its generous size can accommodate a work-from-home setup in the living room or either bedroom. A huge basement storage pallet and bicycle storage are included. All 4 units have been occupied by the original owners since 2007. Low common charges and a partial tax-abatement keep monthly costs minimal. No board package required. Pets allowed. The A/B/C/D train's northern exit is just a stone's throw from the building, making it a breeze to get around the city. New York Sports Club, City College, Jackie Robinson and Riverbank State Parks, Harlem School of the Arts and many cafes, restaurants, and garages are nearby. There is a grocery store across the street. A huge Super Foodtown and classic neighborhood gems such as Charles' Pan Fried Chicken and Famous Fish are a few blocks down. Target is 10 minutes away by car or train. Please note this Brownstone building has a classic front stoop entry, and the garden apartment is one flight down.
