Ideally located, you will love being just minutes from all the best shops, dining and parks in the area as well as plenty of local transit all in one of the most picturesque neighborhoods around.

This classic 1899 brownstone with secluded back garden is legally a three-family dwelling allowing for countless possibilities as an income property or the perfect work-and-live opportunity.

Completely renovated in 2007, this home effortlessly pairs tasteful modern finishes without sacrificing classic Harlem flair and is currently configured as a duplex with each unit offering three spacious bedrooms. Exceptional care was given to the redesign with both homes boasting rich hardwood floors, high-end fixtures and plenty of warm natural light. An effortless flow guides you through the intentional open concept entertainment spaces, offering the perfect place for friends and family to gather. Each kitchen has been completely renovated from top to bottom and features high-end stainless-steel appliances, luxe granite countertops and plenty of cabinetry throughout.

Equal care has been given to the private family spaces as well. Each of the six bedrooms are bright and spacious with ample closet storage, and the bathrooms have all been updated with tasteful modern finishes. Both homes also have spacious master suites, each with large walk-in closets and their own private ensuite bath. The potential and opportunity don't stop with the finished spaces. Downstairs, the lowest level is a blank canvas to be anything you could dream of from a third rental unit to a home office, in-law suite or simply as plenty of extra storage. As an added bonus, outside you will find your favorite part of the home. Escape to your private garden paradise where you'll enjoy a perfectly manicured backyard getaway the perfect place to relax after a long day or take in a meal al fresco. A truly special home with limitless potential all just blocks from shops, restaurants and plenty of local transit.
