Description

A Rare Harlem Treasure with Gated Parking, Rooftop Views, and Boundless Potential

Set on one of Central Harlem's most tree-lined historic brownstone blocks, just steps from the iconic Strivers" Row, this 18-foot-wide townhouse spans over 5,400 square feet across five generous floors-with an additional 1,000 square feet of unused FAR, gated parking for 1-2 cars, and a finished rooftop with sweeping skyline views.

Originally built during the Harlem Renaissance era and rich with original detail, this home features ten decorative fireplaces, handcrafted woodwork, soaring ceilings, antique clawfoot tubs, and elegant pocket doors. Currently configured as 10 SRO units and delivered with a Certificate of No Harassment, the property offers incredible flexibility-perfect for conversion into a grand single-family residence, a luxury multi-family home, or a boutique condo project.

The newly finished English basement provides backyard access and potential for a private guest suite or recreational level. The exclusive rear alleyway allows for secure, private parking and even the option to build a garage-a rare offering in Manhattan.

Moments from express subway lines, City College, Columbia University's expansion zone, and Harlem's vibrant cultural landmarks, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own and reimagine a true Harlem landmark.
