Sun-filled and overlooking Marcus Garvey Park, this south-facing one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home offers a rare sense of openness and tranquility while being centrally located in Harlem’s coveted Mount Morris Park Historic District. With sweeping park views, private outdoor space, and natural light streaming throughout the day, the apartment feels both airy and inviting. Designed by Mariano Puente, the interiors feature a thoughtful layout that balances comfort and functionality for both everyday living and entertaining. The open kitchen is appointed with Calacatta Gold marble countertops, custom cabinetry, and stainless-steel GE Profile appliances, flowing seamlessly into the spacious south-facing living and dining area. A breakfast bar with countertop seating creates the perfect space for casual dining, morning coffee, or entertaining guests. The private balcony serves as a seamless extension of the living space — ideal for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or evening sunsets overlooking the park. Both the living room and bedroom enjoy sunny southern exposures and peaceful open views. The primary suite offers generous closet space and a calm, comfortable atmosphere, while the powder room adds convenience for guests. Additional features include an in-unit washer/dryer, and private storage unit. Set within a full-service condop in the Mount Morris Historic District, residents enjoy a part-time attended lobby, fitness center overlooking the park, landscaped terrace, bicycle storage, video intercom system and parking garage. Located directly across from Marcus Garvey Park and moments from Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Target, neighborhood cafés, acclaimed restaurants, jazz clubs and the New York Public Library, the home offers an ideal blend of neighborhood charm, culture, and everyday convenience. Residents are also moments from some of Harlem’s most celebrated cultural institutions, including Apollo Theater, National Black Theatre, National Jazz Museum and Studio Museum in Harlem. Rich in architectural history, the Mount Morris Park Historic District is celebrated for its beautifully preserved late 19th- and early 20th-century row houses, churches, and eclectic Gilded Age architecture influenced by Romanesque Revival, neo-Grec, and Queen Anne. Its tree-lined streets and remarkably intact streetscapes create one of Manhattan’s most architecturally distinctive residential enclaves. Transportation is easily accessible via the A/B/C/D, 2/3, 4/5/6, and Metro-North trains nearby. No board interview required — only a waiver of the right of first refusal. Flexible subletting from day one of ownership makes this an excellent primary residence, pied-à-terre, or investment opportunity. Pets are welcome. Note: There are currently two assessments in place in the amounts of $99/month and $27/month.
