The tax abatement story
The full 100 percent 421-a exemption continues through tax year 2028/29, followed by a gradual phase-out through 2032/33, with full taxes beginning in 2033/34. A detailed year-by-year carrying cost projection is available upon request and is useful for buyers planning a 3 to 10 year hold.
Spacious, sun-filled, and exceptionally priced to own. Bosch Washer Dryer in unit!!! Apartment 3B at One Strivers' Row delivers 1,244 square feet of two-bedroom, two-bathroom living in one of Central Harlem's most distinctive boutique buildings, at total monthly carrying costs of just $1,345.
Why this home stands out
Two-bedroom condos with comparable square footage in Central Harlem typically carry meaningfully higher monthly costs. Apartment 3B comes in well below the neighborhood average thanks to a 25-Year 421-a Tax Abatement that keeps monthly real estate taxes at approximately $13. Combined with common charges of $1,332, you live larger and carry less.
Inside the home
The open-plan layout connects an entertainer's kitchen, dining area, and a sun-drenched living room with tree-level views. The kitchen is anchored by walnut cabinetry, quartz countertops, a custom glass mosaic backsplash, and a long peninsula with prep and seating space. Built-in appliances and ample storage complete the picture.
Both bedrooms sit quietly away from the main living space. The primary en-suite bathroom features a deep soaking tub, a separate glass-enclosed stall shower, and a window framing the trees. It is a genuine luxury detail rarely seen at this price point. The second bathroom includes a glass-enclosed shower, in-unit Bosch washer/dryer, and the same bright outlook.
Both bathrooms are windowed. In New York City, that's rare.
Hardwood floors run throughout. Central air conditioning. Recessed lighting. Multiple exposures fill the home with natural light from morning to evening.
