This large open-concept studio has a tenant in place with a $2,500 rent and is located in a condominium with no ‘Right of First Refusal' waiver required and an easy approval process, so you can enjoy immediate and great income due to the robust rental market, the tax abatement, and low carrying costs. The home's layout, with wide-plank oak floors laid throughout, offers many options for furniture configuration. Three closets provide ample storage and the modern finishes include full-size stainless steel appliances from the Electrolux Icon Series including a dishwasher, Caesarstone countertops, custom cabinets from Aster Cucine, and a full-size washer and vented dryer from LG. The four-fixture bathroom provides a spa-like environment with imported tile, brushed nickel finishes from Waterworks, and a Neptune soaking tub. 2280 Frederick Douglass Boulevard is a full-service condominium located in prime Harlem with a full-time attended lobby and live-in super. Residents enjoy two outdoor spaces: a roof deck outfitted with a barbecue grill and fireplace and a landscaped second-floor terrace with pergolas and a barbecue grill. The location is in the middle of Harlem's active scene of restaurants and shopping, and its many green spaces, including Morningside Park and its farmer's market, and Central Park. The many transportation options include an in-building parking garage with EV chargers, the A/B/C/D express and 2/3 trains at 125th St., as well as multiple bus lines including the M60 Select Bus Service to LaGuardia Airport, Citi Bike, and Revel mopeds. With a tax abatement that expires in 2035 and low carrying costs, this home should provide value for years to come.

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.
