A Victorian Jewel on Fifth Avenue

Description

A Victorian Jewel on Fifth Avenue

On a sunlit corner of Fifth Avenue, a Victorian townhouse rises with quiet elegance — a rare survivor of another era, reborn with grace for modern life. Its tall windows catch the light of every season, pouring warmth into each of its five floors. Within these walls, the past whispers through restored fireplaces, soaring ceilings, and bay windows, while today’s comforts blend seamlessly in a harmony of old and new.

Step through French doors, and you are carried into a world apart — a European-style garden that feels at once cultivated and romantic. Stone pathways meander through lush plantings, creating spaces for intimate morning coffees, candlelit dinners, or quiet afternoons beneath the trees. Here, in the very heart of Harlem, a touch of Europe awaits.

And beyond the garden, a rarity unfolds — private parking, discreetly nestled into the landscape, offering effortless arrivals and departures without sacrificing beauty or space.


A Home for Living Beautifully

Inside, nearly 6,000 square feet invite you to live with both grandeur and intimacy.

  • 13-foot ceilings that frame sun-filled salons
  • Four fireplaces — each a gathering place, each a story
  • Bay and picture windows that bathe every room in light
  • A versatile cellar, ready to become a wine sanctuary, a spa retreat, or a private cinema
  • Central air, heating, humidification, and a sprinkler system ensure modern ease within historic walls

Fifth Avenue Elegance

Just steps from Marcus Garvey Park, this residence is part of Harlem’s rich cultural tapestry — a neighborhood alive with cafés, boutiques, music, and history. Life here is as vibrant outside as it is serene within.


The Offering

This is more than a townhouse: it is a Victorian-era treasure reborn for modern life. Sunlight, soaring ceilings, and a European-inspired garden with rare private parking make it a home of unmatched beauty. At the same time, its three elegant private apartments, each with fireplaces, outdoor space, and modern systems, create a smooth and consistent stream of income. Together, they offer the rarest combination in New York City — a home of grace and light, paired with the security of a wise and lasting investment.
