Property Description
From the moment you step inside this grand, 23'-wide, semi-detached home on the corner of 147th Street and picturesque Convent Avenue, you'll be enchanted by the seamless blend of restored original detail and pristine contemporary design. This is currently configured as an owner's triplex, with a garden level apartment that is ideal for providing privacy for visiting family, guests, or as a separate rental unit. Each unit has a private entrance.
Every inch of this 6,600 square foot home has been gorgeously curated to showcase the lovingly restored prewar details, while upgrading all systems, including HVAC units with separate NEST control on each floor, 7 functioning gas fireplaces, and wireless speakers on the first two floors and in the garden.
PARLOR FLOOR: The main entrance gives a preview of what is to come by showcasing the rich woodwork throughout as well as elegantly laid herringbone floor tile. The parlor floor hosts an elegant front living room with softly curving bay windows and a fireplace and opens into the impressive formal dining room with views onto Convent Avenue. A chic powder room is conveniently located just off the dining room. The sunny, eat-in-kitchen is as beautiful as it is practical with intricate ornamental woodwork, plenty of storage including a large pantry, custom cabinetry and open shelving and high end appliances. Enjoy your breakfast in this cheerful room, looking out into the garden.
SECOND FLOOR:
Up the graceful staircase on the second floor are two, large, split bedrooms each with a fireplace , 2 sleek modern bathrooms and a serene central sitting room ideal for unwinding away from the commotion downstairs. The sitting room looks out onto serene Convent Avenue with oversized Tilt & Turn windows that open onto striking original wrought iron Juliet Balcony.
THIRD FLOOR:
Up one more set of stairs to the top floor capped with a skylight. This serene floor hosts the primary bedroom which features a luxurious primary bathroom complete with double shower. Another large bedroom is on this floor along with a smaller 5th bedroom or potentially home office. Equally important is the laundry area with full-sized washer and dryer.
GARDEN FLOOR (Separate Unit):
The garden apartment is a floor through unit with access to the finished basement. With the same lovely curving bay windows and a beautiful original fireplace, this charming apartment has a fully tiled bathroom with large, glass enclosed standing shower, center room currently used as an envy-inducing walk-in closet, and a spacious open kitchen, dining and living room. Off of the kitchen, is access to the peaceful private garden designed by Greenery NYC. Enjoy grilling, entertaining and al fresco dining.
FINISHED BASEMENT:
Beneath the garden floor is a finished basement with tiled floors, a half bathroom and lots of room for storage. This room is great additional space for a rec room/man cave, home gym, or any other need you might have. The full square footage of the house is 6,600, but excluding this basement level, the top four floors total 5,275sqft.
Own a piece of history with this one-of-a kind home in the Sugar Hill Historic District within the larger Hamilton Heights neighborhood. Named after Alexander Hamilton, who built his country villa, Hamilton Grange, on 33 acres in the early 19th century, the existing magnificent homes were largely built between the late 19th century through the 1930's. Convent Avenue's majestic and cohesive buildings evoke the rich history of the neighborhood making it a popular location for film shoots and architecture enthusiasts. Come and see this hidden jewel of New York City! Jackie Robinson Park is just minutes away, as is St. Nicholas Park. Favorite neighborhood restaurants include Harlem Public, Oso, Sugar Hill Creamery, Chipped Cup, and Hand Pulled Noodle.
