YOUR RENOVATED TOWNHOUSE DREAM MOVE-IN-READY: BIG - BEAUTIFUL - BRIGHT RE-ENVISIONED & RE-DESIGNED, HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT, SOUTH HARLEM TOWNHOUSE On a sweet tree-lined street – a stone’s throw from, and equidistant to two neighborhood parks -- there sits a handsome, classic, restored townhouse. It is the quintessential uptown house: Its hallmark stoop and brownstone, its big windows, and its gorgeous, historical facade are heartwarming, so easy to love, and so easy to call home. The scale of this fully re-imagined and reinvented residence is expansive yet manageable – the life this home provides is grand yet soulful. With 4+ well-scaled bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a bonus office, a terrace, and a private garden, this sun-splashed sweetheart is a flexible and winsome choice indeed. Up the stoop and into the impressively lofted parlor floor, you come home to a big living room, dining, and an open kitchen. The kitchen is pretty and practical, with Signature Custom cabinetry, a dining island, and stainless appliances by Wolf (6 burner) and Bosch. The open-plan of the parlor level is ideal for stretching out and entertaining in style, and flows beautifully onto a sun-splashed balcony with stairs down to the backyard. On the garden level, you find a guest suite, den, wet bar, a big washer/dryer, and access to the sweet, sunny, private yard. Above the parlor level is the primary bedroom suite – a bright floor-through with two walk-in-closets, a bonus office, a laundry space, an impressive primary bath (with fixtures by Kohler and Toto), and its own private, South-facing treetop terrace overlooking the backyard. The top floor -- crowned by two skylights – offers two sizable bedrooms with two walk-in closets, a laundry chute, and a guest bath. Underfoot are walnut floors, and above are high ceilings with recessed lighting and crown moldings. With six fireplaces with heartwarming mantles, central air, Pella windows, and restored brickwork, this fully-sprinkled, move-in-ready beauty stands out for all the right reasons. Perfectly perched on one of South Harlem’s sweetest blocks, this feel-good residence enjoys ideal proximity to every area shopping (Whole Foods), dining, and cultural destination – not to mention easy access to convenient transportation options. A fresh take on a classic townhouse awaits you – big, bright and beautiful. Here’s your townhouse dream.
