1 BEDROOM - 1.5 BATHROOMS - DUPLEX - WOOD BURNING FIREPLACE - SKYLIGHT - PRIVATE TERRACE
Feel instantly at home in this wonderfully renovated condominium building in the heart of Harlem.
This beautiful, bright and newly renovated duplex, 1 bedroom, 1.5 bathrooms apartment with a terrace off the bedroom, is located on the top floors overlooking a quiet, historic Harlem street lined with brownstones and trees and the famous Apollo Theater.
Enter the apartment into the large and light filled downstairs area where living/dining room, kitchen and a half bathroom and Washer/Dryer are located.
The living room has a perfectly working wood fireplace and wonderful original details like the exposed brick wall and enough space for a dining table next to the kitchen. The chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances and dishwasher has great counter space and a breakfast bar and has been updated as has the adjacent half bathroom.
There is a good sized closet space underneath the elegant, wooden stairs to the upper floor.
The upstairs features a very bright and spacious bedroom with a large skylight that lets light flood into the room, a walk in closet, en-suite bathroom with soaking tub and a small hallway with a separate entrance from the building's hallway, which can be used as is or utilized as an additional storage space. The bedroom has sufficient space to create a home office area.
But surely one of the highlights here is the terrace off the bedroom perfect for your morning coffee or dinner under the Harlem night sky and Harlem skyline.
The apartment is centrally located close to major public transportation (express A,B,C,D, 2 & 3 trains) crosstown busses on 125th, 116th streets and great shopping possibilities on 125th street (Whole Foods & Trader Joe's) as well as many great restaurants.
Columbia University, Central Park and City College are easy and fast to get to from here.
NOTE: Please do not show up to the apartment without first getting an appointment confirmation. You will be given a time to arrive so we can control the flow of showings. We do not want you waiting outside in the heat.
