The main level welcomes you with an open and airy living space, featuring high ceilings and a sleek kitchen outfitted with stainless steel appliances, contemporary cabinetry, and well-maintained dark cherry floors. Large south-facing windows provide ample natural light during the day, while recessed lighting throughout brightens the space as the sun goes down. The bright and spacious bathroom includes a modern marble vanity with plenty of storage, and a full soaking tub. From the hallway, enjoy views of the community garden next door through your three east-facing windows.

Descending a spiral staircase in the foyer with an exposed brick wall, the lower level offers a generously sized flexible space currently being used as a bedroom. Ample storage and a half bathroom make for the perfect second living space. A stackable Maytag washer and Fisher & Paykel dryer round out this amazing home, providing all the conveniences of modern living in a boutique building.

This pet-friendly, boutique condo building features a secure video intercom system, a beautifully landscaped garden, a rooftop terrace, a common backyard, and shared storage.

Situated just 2.5 blocks from the 2 & 3 trains and 3.5 blocks from the B & C trains at West 135th Street, this home is surrounded by fantastic restaurants, shops, and all that Central Harlem has to offer. A unique opportunity to enjoy comfort, style, and an unbeatable location!
