New York (Hamilton Heights), NY, 10031 | $2,595,000

A grand townhouse defined by scale, light, and extraordinary original craftsmanship, this five-bedroom residence with flexible potential for seven bedrooms delivers classic Harlem elegance at its most refined. Expansive proportions, impeccably preserved details, and thoughtfully updated interiors create a home that feels both storied and effortlessly livable.

The parlor level is nothing short of dramatic. A sweeping open layout unfolds beneath soaring ceilings as sunlight pours through a generous bay window, illuminating gleaming hardwood floors, intricate millwork, and a show-stopping central staircase that anchors the home with architectural presence. Original decorative fireplace mantels and built-in mirrors provide a sense of old-world grandeur rarely found at this scale. A discreet powder room on the garden level and five renovated bathrooms above, of which four are en-suite introduce modern polish with brushed nickel fixtures, refined tilework, and glass-enclosed showers.

On the garden level, the home transitions seamlessly into a chef-forward kitchen designed for both function and gathering. A sprawling island with an integrated gas range takes center stage, surrounded by dual pantries, stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, a powder room for guests, and an in-home washer and dryer. Double French doors lead to a private outdoor retreat, where a dramatic natural rock feature wall and planted garden create a serene, tucked-away escape ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings at home.

Perfectly positioned near the 145th Street express station, the A, B, C, and D lines provide swift access to Midtown and Downtown Manhattan, Central Park, and Yankee Stadium. The surrounding neighborhood continues to flourish with destination dining, culture, and green space-offering a lifestyle that blends historic prestige with modern energy.
