About This Home
A masterfully renovated brownstone in the heart of South Harlem, 32 West 119th Street blends historic elegance with modern luxury across four expansive levels plus a finished cellar, multiple outdoor spaces, and offers elevator access throughout from the finished cellar to the stunning roof deck.
This grand single-family residence features 5 bedrooms with flexibility for a sixth and six full baths, all within a thoughtfully designed layout that celebrates natural light, fluid movement, and refined materials.
On the parlor level, soaring ceilings and oversized windows set the stage for an impressive living and dining space. The gourmet kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring top-of-the-line appliances, sleek cabinetry, and a NanaWall system that opens completely onto a private deck-creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A staircase from the deck leads to the lush garden below, perfect for entertaining or peaceful relaxation.
The garden level offers a full bedroom suite ideal for guests, along with a generous lounge and a flexible recreational room that opens directly to the backyard-providing flexibility for an additional bedroom and boasting privacy and easy access to the outdoors.
Below, the finished cellar level includes a recreation room ideal for a home gym or media space, abundant storage, laundry, and room for a wine cellar or hobbyist studio.
The second floor is a private retreat, with a full-floor primary suite that includes dual walk-in closets, a luxurious spa bath, and a convenient laundry room. A second en-suite bedroom completes this level.
Upstairs, the third floor features two additional bedroom suites, each with ample closet space and beautiful natural light. One suite opens to a private terrace in the rear of the home, offering a tranquil view over the townhouse gardens below.
Atop it all, a panoramic roof deck crowns the home-ideal for sun-drenched lounging, urban gardening, or evening gatherings. Additional features include a stunning brownstone facade, a grand central staircase anchoring every level, and an elevator for ultimate comfort and accessibility.
Set on a beautiful tree-lined block just off Marcus Garvey Park and near Columbia University, 32 West 119th Street is moments from Harlem's best dining, including SottoCasa Pizzeria, Barawine, and Red Rooster, plus cultural icons like the Schomburg Center and the Apollo Theater. The 2/3 subway at 116th Street is just around the corner, with easy access to the A/C/B/D and Metro North nearby, placing Midtown, Downtown, and beyond all within reach.
