A rare opportunity to own a fully restored corner Victorian-era townhouse in the heart of Central Harlem! Situated on a prominent Fifth Avenue block, this impressive five-story, four-unit residence seamlessly blends period character with modern comfort.
Spanning nearly 6,000 square feet, the property offers exceptional flexibility for investors, end users, or those seeking a combination of luxury living and rental income.
Enter your new home through the magnificent eight-foot-tall, raised fleur-de-lis hand-carved door, into your owner's residence with its soaring eleven-foot ceilings, a working fireplace, an oversized south-facing bay window, and a large western-facing picture window. Just off the living room is the primary bedroom, with good storage space throughout, wonderful morning light, and a large en-suite full bathroom with a double sink.
Downstairs, enjoy a dynamic floor plan where you can entertain guests in a dining room that can comfortably seat six for dinner and opens out to the backyard. Here, you can retreat with friends on summer nights in your meticulously planted garden, with a variety of plantings and a fantastic array of small and large trees.
Just off the outdoor space is a rarity in Manhattan: a space for your car! No need to look for a parking space.
On the ground floor is a spacious kitchen with a large island and ample counter space for the cook in the family, which also enjoys excellent south-facing light. On this same floor are two more bedrooms, a large full bathroom, and a washer and dryer. There is also access to this floor through a second entrance beneath the stoop.
The residence features three free-market, two-bedroom, floor-through apartments. Each apartment enjoys exceptional light throughout, with open-sky exposures from the east in each bedroom, and western and southern light streaming through each kitchen. Each apartment also has a rare find of its own: an east-facing balcony, where one can enjoy a morning coffee or watch the sun come up. Apartments two and three have gas fireplaces.
The house has central air and separately metered electricity for each tenant. The cellar has approximately eight-foot ceilings and opens directly to the outside. All mechanicals have been updated recently, and there is a video-monitored entry system for all four units.
2099 Fifth Avenue is registered as a four- unit home.
The location is equally special. Marcus Garvey Park is just down Fifth Avenue, offering more than 20 acres of green space in the heart of Harlem. Some of the neighborhood's most famous restaurants are also nearby, including Red Rooster, Sylvia's, and Amy Ruth's, along with Harlem's wonderful collection of cafés, restaurants, shops, and cultural institutions.
Located moments from Marcus Garvey Park, Harlem's renowned restaurants, cultural institutions, and multiple subway lines, this distinctive townhouse offers a unique blend of scale, elegance, character, outdoor space, and income-producing potential in one of Manhattan's most vibrant neighborhoods.
