Property Description

FIRST DAY ON MARKET--THREE BEDROOM HARLEM HISTORICAL HAVEN

This really is the one you've been waiting for. There is nothing available in Harlem that compares to this beautifully restored move-in ready 3 bedroom Turn of the Century (Built 1887) home. Here you will find a plethora of prewar charm and details and no work left for you to do.

You enter this 10 unit self-managed cooperative through the original oak double doors and ride a keyed elevator up to the top (5th) floor. As you arrive in apartment 5W, you are struck by the ambiance of this truly special home which is flooded with light. The North facing living room has 3 windows with original wood shutters, a lovely decorative fireplace and mantle and a gorgeous wood sliding pocket door leading to the beautiful Formal Dining Room with built in floor to ceiling book/display cases. These rooms provide a distinctive place for relaxing and entertaining. Here you will enjoy intimate gatherings, or for special occasions you can invite over a large group of friends and relatives.

The apartment has an abundance of prewar details including glass French doors, high ceilings, glass transoms, vintage chandeliers, bordered original hardwood flooring and original moldings and millwork throughout.

Down the long hallway (a perfect backdrop to display your artwork), you will find two bedrooms facing West (one currently an office), a walk-in cedar closet, the primary bathroom, a powder room, and a second walk-in closet that has been converted into a recording studio.

The Primary bedroom with another decorative fireplace and mantle is large enough to accommodate a reading area and a desk. Its windows face South and have lovely white shutters. There are 2 built-in corner display cabinets which add prewar charm to the space. If you have ever longed for a closet/dressing room with enough space for all your clothes, no need to wish any longer. Here is, yes, a third walk-in closet and one of the best you will find in NYC!

The sunny, windowed eat-in-kitchen with separate laundry room and pantry, has been beautifully renovated. The centerpiece of this room is a gorgeous fully refurbished vintage Chambers stove from the mid 1950's. Not only is it beautiful to look at, but the results of cooking with this stove are superb. Every detail in the kitchen was thought out with care, down to the Big Chill fridge and dishwasher (new appliances that look midcentury!) Any chef will enjoy working in this kitchen with tons of cabinetry and stunning quartz counters---room for everything!

The apartment is loaded with storage. There are several nooks and crannies, giving you dedicated spaces for all your special needs. Want a dark room, a recording studio, a place for zoom calls, a safe haven away from the rest of the household? Whatever your desire, this home has the answer for you. And to top it off, additional storage space in the building's basement (no fee) transfers with the apartment.

Apt 5W is one of 10 units, just two per floor, in this charming boutique cooperative. Conveniently located on 135th Street, you are very close to the 2/3 and B/C trains (which whisk you to midtown in less than 20 minutes) and also near by is the 4/5 train and Metro-North's Harlem station.

Foodies will enjoy easy proximity to some of the community's celebrated restaurants, including the acclaimed Red Rooster, Sylvia's, The Edge, Ponty Bistro (French meets West African flair) and Abyssinia (delish Ethiopian), just to name a few.

If you want to shop, you are 5 minutes from 125th Street where you will find Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Sephora and many more shopping options.

Apartment 5W could be your new home. Call, text, or email for a private appointment or visit us at our next Open House.
