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.
