Description

This location may be eligable for lower mortgage rate / financing incentives with some banks. Looking for a move-in ready home with a landscaped backyard? Then look no further than this stunning duplex floor-through apartment featuring 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms in excellent condition. With 1917 square feet it can easily convert to a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home as well. Coming to this apartment you will immediately appreciate the privacy it offers, unlike the other homes in this condo townhouse, this one has its own private entrance! Through the front garden patio and gated arched doorway is the home’s charming mudroom with beautiful exposed red brick, hand-crafted tiled flooring and a large closet for storage. A second entrance, adding additional security, takes you into the home’s foyer and onto the left you’ll come into the bright and airy living and dining room. The bay windows offer plenty of natural light and a cozy spot for seating, and the gas fireplace decorated with imported hand-painted Delftware tiles adds a rich historic detail to the home, signature of Harlem townhouses. The exposed brick wall throughout with overhead LED lighting is the perfect spot to highlight your artwork, and the wide planked white oak floors inlaid with walnut borders throughout reinforce the understated elegance of this home. Further into the home, you’ll come to the open chef’s kitchen with all white Caesarstone countertops and breakfast bar. The kitchen is equipped with all stainless Bosch premier appliances and is set against a brilliant white and grey marble mosaic backsplash that soars to the ceiling. Plenty of cabinetry throughout and a full-sized pantry offering so much storage. As if not enough, off the kitchen you have the utility storage closet with individual trash chute. Down the hallway, you’ll come to the primary and 2nd bedrooms adjacent to one another. The primary bedroom with its exposed red brick wall, walk-in closet, and insulated floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the backyard make this the perfect sanctuary. The ensuite bathroom also has tons of charm with an exposed red brick wall, glass barn-door rain shower, wood shelving and herringbone-pattern tiled flooring. The 2nd bedroom with 2nd bathroom just outside (perfect as a guest bathroom as well) is just as elegant and also overlooks the backyard through insulated floor-to-ceiling windows. Coming out onto the lavishly landscaped backyard it offers a built-in refrigerator and high-end gas grill, as well as a full sprinkler system, custom in-ground and surrounding fence lighting, and two oscillating fans with outdoor chandelier. With a southern exposure, this backyard gets tons of sunlight all day making it the perfect place to privately unwind or stylishly entertain! Coming back inside the apartment and down the beautiful rope/glass staircase is the recreation room. A customized built-in entertainment center with a built-in murphy bed, as well as a built-in desk offers a great “work from home” setup and during special occasions a guest bedroom with half bath downstairs (one can convert this room to a bedroom with full bathroom as well). The wall of insulated floor-to-ceiling windows opens to a lower patio allowing natural light and easy access upstairs to the backyard. The laundry room is equipped with a vented washer/dryer and additional storage. The home throughout offers central air and heat diffusers, LED lighting, as well as a digital touchscreen intercom with remote smart-phone access. 120 West 118th Street is a condo townhouse gut-renovated in 2019. With five stories and only five apartments (one per floor) the townhouse offers residents a quiet, community-like feel. There is also a part-time super (comes 3x per week) and property management. Located on an enchanting tree-lined street filled with beautiful townhouses, it embodies historic Harlem. With tons of great restaurants nearby, Red Rooster, Melba’s, The Noodle, Clay etc. and the 2/3/B/C​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​ su
