Property Description for 68 Bradhurst Ave, PH-S

Do you want private outdoor space? This might be one of the biggest terraces in New York City. This is an unusual opportunity: A penthouse duplex 3-bedroom, 2-bath at the Langston Condominium is now available and that does not happen frequently. Penthouse S is even more unusual in that its outdoor space is massive, so start drawing up your garden plans and choosing your patio furniture! This corner apartment features sweeping skyline views, stunning light and (when we get them in New York) starry nights. Combined with the low common charges and 421a tax abatement, this home is an irresistible gem. In the apartment you'll have European white oak strip floors, thru-wall heat & AC in each room, oversized double-paned windows with superb sound attenuation, ample closet space, GE stainless steel appliances, 9-foot ceilings, Crema Pearl Italian marble in the master bath and an LG washer/dryer combo. There are two bedrooms and two baths on the upper level and on the first floor, the kitchen, dining room, living room and a third bedroom/home office. The Langston Condominium was built in 2006 and has retained its appeal over the years. Located at the base of Sugar Hill and Hamilton Heights it is favored with a location combination of attributes that are hard, if not impossible to match: 24-hour attended lobby; two stops from midtown on the A or D; Starbucks, NYSC, bank and parking garage in the building; live-in super; residents gym and courtyard (with playground}; as well as farmer's market, park, swimming pool, supermarket, pharmacy and additional banks across the street.

Harlem | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The neighborhood called West Harlem by the locals is known as Manhattanville to neighborhood newcomers. The area is culturally diverse and might be considered a microcosm of the city as a whole. 

Columbia University has recently expanded into the area, which is attracting student residents from all over the world. Together with students from the City College of New York and young professionals fleeing higher prices in other neighborhoods, this influx of younger residents has brought with it more restaurants and bars on W 125th Street to serve this clientele. There are also new ventures, like a rock-climbing gym, to cater to the interests of these students and young professionals. At the same time, there are many small, family-owned shops and restaurants that have been anchors of the neighborhood for multiple generations.

The area has been through a housing upgrade, as older properties have been renovated and abandoned properties have been razed to make room for new development. There are still reasonably priced apartments available. Young professionals are finding that there is a certain cachet to living in West Harlem. It provides a convenient commute to the city and all of its amenities, while providing a sense of escape at the end of a long work day.

While rentals are popular with the student population, the young professionals are delighted to find pre-war brownstones, pre-war co-ops (including some income-capped HDFCs for lower- and middle-income buyers), and post-war condos that they can afford, although prices are rising. Some new low-rise developments, sporting virtual doormen and desired amenities, are cropping up.
