A four-bedroom owner's triplex above a one-bedroom garden duplex, delivered move-in ready across five floors, with 4,800 gross square feet, 4,058 square feet of interior square feet, and 1,159 square feet of private outdoor space. Scale is what sets this house apart. Built on an 18'9" × 100' lot, it is meaningfully wider than the 16-to-18-foot brownstones that make up most of Central Harlem's residential stock and those extra feet are felt in every room. The parlor living room runs a full 17 by 20 feet. The top-floor front bedroom measures nearly 17 by 16. Ceiling heights are equally uncommon. Twelve feet on the parlor floor, and a rare 11'4" on the fourth floor, where most brownstones of this era taper into low, cramped upper stories. The result is a house that lives considerably larger than its peers, floor after floor. A classic high stoop, ornate brownstone façade, and arched double doors deliver the curb appeal that has made this stretch of Central Harlem one of Manhattan's most sought-after residential corridors. A gracious vestibule opens through an arched interior door into an entry hall anchored by an original niche with a gilded mirror, flanked by wall sconces, alongside a handsome oak staircase with a turned newel and white-painted balustrade. Twelve-foot ceilings, crown moldings, and gleaming oak floors run throughout. The front dining room draws light from two oversized windows framing views of the brownstone block. Beyond, the pass-through kitchen is fitted with custom wood cabinetry, granite counters, an under-cabinet-lit work wall, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a gas range, side-by-side refrigerator, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. A serving counter opens directly into the rear living room. That rear room is the heart of the floor. A gracious great room with a wall of glass, paired French doors flanking a picture window, all topped with transoms opening onto a private deck overlooking the garden below. A powder room and generous closets complete the level. The entire third floor is given over to the primary suite. A serene rear-facing bedroom overlooks the garden and treetops, joined by a fully outfitted walk-in closet with custom oak shelving and double hanging on both walls, a dedicated laundry area, and a large sitting room at the front of the house. Ideal as a home office, library, or private studio. The spa bathroom on this floor is a genuine standout, appointed with a deep soaking tub set in a tiled surround, a separate glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and an extended double vanity in honed stone with abundant storage. The top floor holds three additional bedrooms beneath 11'4" ceilings, including a substantial 17-by-16-foot front bedroom with three windows and open treetop views over the block. A full bathroom and a skylight over the landing complete the floor, filling the stair core with natural light. Below the parlor, a fully separate two-level residence offers immediate flexibility. The garden floor opens with a bright living and dining room that flows directly out to the garden through a glazed door, joined by an open kitchen with light ash cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless appliances. A front-facing bedroom, a full bathroom, and three roomy closets. The level below adds an expansive 17-by-24-foot recreation room plus additional storage and mechanical rooms, square footage most Harlem townhouses simply don't have. Operated as a rental, reserved for guests or extended household use, or reabsorbed into the primary residence, the duplex is a rare asset in a house of this caliber. 1,159 square feet of private exterior space is split between the parlor-level deck and a fully fenced rear garden running 42 feet deep.

A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across Harlem. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 89.7% (6 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 100% (6 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 121 days (8 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 112 days (8 sales) Based on house sales in Harlem with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric. These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. Sales data through September 2026. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
