Nestled on a charming tree-lined block within South Harlem's coveted Mount Morris Park Historic District, this stately 2-family Queen Anne brownstone, designed by the renowned architects Thom & Wilson in 1899, offers an extraordinary opportunity for both restoration and development. With a substantial, unused Floor Area Ratio (FAR), this four-story townhouse with a cellar not only retains its original grandeur but also invites a world of possibilities for expansion and customization. This expansive residence spans an impressive 19 feet in width and boasts four full bathrooms and an array of preserved 19th-century details. From the beautiful stained glass windows to the intricate hardwood floors, fireplaces on each level, and elegantly framed doors with crown molding, this home is a testament to timeless architectural beauty. Each floor presents a unique opportunity to enhance or reimagine its space, whether as a luxurious single-family home, an investment property, or a high-end rental. The Garden Floor is currently arranged with an expansive eat-in kitchen, a dining room, a full bathroom, and a living room, which opens directly to a private backyard-an ideal setting for creating a peaceful urban oasis. Ascending to the Parlor Floor, residents are welcomed by 12-foot ceilings and intricate woodwork throughout two generously sized, light-filled bedrooms. The main entrance to the parlor floor is accessible from the stoop and features a pair of grand double wood doors, topped by antique stained glass transoms and accompanied by South-facing windows. Upstairs, the Third Floor offers charming South-facing bay windows, while the Fourth Floor has a month-to-month tenant in place, providing immediate rental income. Each floor offers flexibility, allowing the future owner to retain the current layout or to renovate and design to their unique specifications. Located in one of South Harlem's most desirable areas, this property is surrounded by top neighborhood amenities, including Marcus Garvey Park, Whole Foods Market, and a thriving restaurant scene along Malcolm X Boulevard. Convenient access to the 2/3 subway, along with the 4/5/6, Metro North, and A/C/B/D trains, puts all of New York City within easy reach. As a distinctive piece of Harlem's architectural history, this brownstone stands as the ideal canvas to create a custom dream home, a valuable investment property, or a luxury development opportunity. The combination of historical charm, substantial FAR, and unparalleled location offers a unique chance to increase equity and enjoy the best of South Harlem living.
