Description

Space is valuable. Flexibility is rare. A thoughtfully configured Harlem townhouse that offers both is even rarer. Currently configured as three residential units, 158 West 119th Street is a four-story Harlem townhouse that offers the rare combination of generous scale, income-producing potential, and remarkable flexibility. Encompassing nearly 6,000 square feet of interior space, this classic 1920 residence is equally compelling for investors, owner-occupants, or those seeking a multi-generational home in one of Manhattan's most vibrant neighborhoods. The owner's duplex serves as a spacious primary residence, offering three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and direct access to a private patio-an inviting extension of the living space for outdoor dining, gardening, or quiet relaxation. The second-floor residence features three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, while the top-floor residence offers two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Throughout the home, each residence is thoughtfully designed with soaring ceilings, oversized windows that fill the interiors with natural light, individually controlled heating, in-unit washer and dryer, and the generous proportions that define classic Harlem townhouse living. The property's existing configuration provides immediate income-producing potential while preserving the flexibility to adapt to a variety of ownership strategies over time. Rich in architectural character and timeless appeal, the home stands on a picturesque Harlem brownstone block just moments from celebrated restaurants, neighborhood cafés, cultural institutions, parks, and convenient transportation. Whether expanding an investment portfolio, creating a live-plus-income residence, or simply enjoying the flexibility of a thoughtfully configured multi-family home, 158 West 119th Street offers a rare opportunity to own a property that can evolve with your vision for years to come.
