Welcome to 523 West 162nd Street: A quintessential uptown 4-family townhouse that was lovingly restored, with original prewar details throughout.

The Ground floor unit is a 1 bedroom / 1 bath with a large garden and separate entrance below the stoop. It has two original fireplaces and an open kitchen with a bar that can seat two.
The first-floor unit includes two bedrooms, facing the back of the building and 1 bathroom. It has an open kitchen and a lovely living space with an original fireplace.
The 2nd-floor unit includes 2 bedrooms, one facing north, the other south, 1 bathroom, and an open kitchen.
The final 3rd-floor unit has three bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and an open kitchen with a skylight.
