Description

BEST IN CLASS Enter this sublime home and be enchanted. Grand proportions, beautiful flow, natural light and rich prewar details live in perfect harmony here in this classic 5 room home overlooking Jackie Robinson Park. This level of sophistication is rarely found at such an attainable price. If you seek an adult living space that demands formal dinner parties and large-scale entertaining, this home is a dream answered. Each room is replete with exquisite original elements that create an elegant framework for any esthetic. French doors throughout the home create intimacy when needed or a welcoming connection between formal dining and living room and bedroom wing. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is a perfect fusion of modern and classic choices, from the Bertazzoni range, LG washer/dryer and lacquer cabinetry to the farmhouse sink, butcher block counters and floor-ceiling white tiles, resulting in a clean, functional and equally attractive workspace with magical views. The main bathroom also oozes old-world charm with the vintage soaking tub taking center stage. Each bedroom is well proportioned; either can be used as your primary. Both have generous closets and open eastern exposure providing glorious morning light and lush leafy views. In fact, the light is spectacular throughout the home. The home has been skim-coated, updated electrically and offers 6 generous closets including a walk-in. This elevated 2nd floor home has surprisingly open views and a lovely sense of privacy. Truly magnificent and certainly one-of-a kind. Situated in Landmarked 409 Edgecombe in Sugar Hill, this historic building was once home to Justice Thurgood Marshall as well as other elite African American luminaries. Today the building stands as a haven for savvy New Yorkers seeking a quality of life that is hard to find at an affordable price. The building has undergone quite a recent transformation including paying off its underlying mortgage. Amenities include a part-time doorman, resident Super, 3 elevators, outdoor patios and central laundry. Pets are welcome. Conveniently located near the A, B, C & D trains, supermarkets, eateries, parks, museums, and colleges. NOTE: This is an HDFC Building - 120% of AMI.
