Located in a historic 1910 townhouse on West 126th Street in a convenient and vibrant Harlem neighborhood, this spacious duplex garden home exudes warmth and charm. The garden level is a private one-bedroom two-bathroom residence that offers a large great room, primary bedroom and bathroom on the main level, two additional rooms and bathroom on the lower level, and direct access to a large private backyard garden. Enter this lovely home through the original wrought iron gate and private front “yard.” The large living room opens to an exquisite chef’s kitchen outfitted with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, plentiful stone countertops with breakfast bar, and a suite of stainless steel appliances, including dishwasher. Exposed brick walls and cherry hardwood floors exist throughout. Down the hall lies the primary bedroom with direct access to the private back garden.

Adjacent to the primary bedroom is a tastefully designed bathroom that offers a deep soaking tub, medicine cabinet, and classic white marble tiles. The lower level features two large spaces either of which could function as a den, office, or as sleeping rooms, with gorgeous exposed stone walls and polished concrete and tiled floors. Also on this level is a full bathroom with tub and black and white tiles, abundant closets and two large storage rooms. For optimal convenience, the perfect home also includes its own laundry room outfitted with a large stacked LG washing machine and dryer, a central HVAC system, integrated recessed lighting throughout, and a state of the art camera intercom system. Conveniently located on tree lined West 126th Street between Adam Clayton Powell Blvd and Lenox Ave (just two short blocks from Marcus Garvey Park!), this historic two-family townhouse is surrounded by great restaurants, transportation (both train and bus), and shopping, including Whole Foods, all within a few blocks away.

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.
