Listing Notes

Originally constructed in 1888-1889 by the noted architectural firm Cleverdon & Putzel, this handsome Renaissance Revival townhouse stands 20 feet wide and extends 55 feet deep on one of the most sought-after blocks in the Mount Morris Park Historic District. Offering more than 5, 000 square feet of living space, the home is currently configured as an owner's quadruplex with a fully finished basement, laundry, and private garden, along with a two-bedroom top-floor apartment that produces over $45, 000 per year in rental income. The house combines well-preserved period detail with contemporary updates for everyday comfort. The quadruplex offers four bedrooms, with the potential to create a full-floor primary suite. Lofty ceiling heights - soaring to 13 feet on the parlor floor - along with oversized windows and dual exposures bring in remarkable light and air throughout the residence. Monthly taxes remain very favorable at just $624. A tall fence encloses the rear garden, creating a secluded setting for outdoor entertaining or quiet evenings. The layout also offers flexibility: while it functions beautifully as a two-family, it can easily be reimagined as a grand single-family home. Positioned just blocks from Whole Foods and the shopping, dining, and entertainment of 125th Street, the property is also moments from Marcus Garvey Park and a short walk to Central Park. Acclaimed neighborhood favorites such as Red Rooster, Barawine, Settepani, and Archer & Goat are close at hand. Transportation is excellent with the 2/3 express trains less than two blocks away, and additional access to the A/B/C/D, 4/5/6, and Metro-North all within a short walk. This townhouse presents a rare opportunity in one of Harlem's most desirable locations: a residence that provides income today, versatility for the future, and the potential to become a spectacular single-family home.
