14 Sylvan Terrace

Make your dreams come true... with low monthlies and no board approval. Imagine your single family home on a secret street of historic row houses nestled in the top of Harlem. This enchanting home is sunny with more windows than most houses in Manhattan, and skylights from lower level to the roof. Original details abound, including: crown and baseboard moldings, 2 FP (1-wood burning), pocket doors, period hard wood floors with some wide plank flooring & high ceilings. From the attractive stoop, you enter your home, the interior offers 3 floors, with 7 spacious rooms. Two floors of entertaining space; both which invite use for luxurious formal or informal entertaining and relaxation. On the parlor level there is a nice foyer and warm and bright living room separated by pocket doors from the library/music room. From there go up and out onto the beautiful deck where you can entertain, cook, and plant that flower and vegetable garden. There is both electric and water on the southern deck. The top floor boasts the MBR with an adjacent windowed WIC, the second bedroom and an updated beautiful full bath. There is an additional BR on the lower level as well. Either ascend the beautiful stairway or enter from the street level to the lower level with an equally delicious space. Here you have the renovated kitchen that is open to the dining room, with a hutch that also serves for wine storage, a cozy and comfortable den, the 3rd BR/guest room or home office, and the bath and W/D. With each room of gracious proportions. Landmarked Sylvan Terrace is a cobblestone street that was originally the carriage drive to the Morris-Jumel Mansion, the oldest house in Manhattan. General George Washington used the mansion as his temporary headquarters during the Revolutionary War and, more recently, Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote part of the award winning musical Hamilton here. You are moments from the C train and a few blocks from the 1 train, as well as several bus lines. This location is in close proximity to Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center and City College.
