About This Home
Nestled on one of Harlem's most picturesque historic blocks, a tree-lined enclave of beautifully preserved rowhouses in the Dorrance Brooks Square Historic District, and just two blocks from iconic Striver's Row in the epicenter of the Harlem Renaissance, this stunning, well-maintained 17.5-foot-wide Queen Anne brick and limestone townhouse, is a beautifully maintained four-family property, offering the perfect blend of architectural grandeur, exceptional income potential, and significant upside for the value-add investor.
Distinguished by its corbeled bay windows, ornate galvanized metal cornice, classic limestone facade, and stately high stoop, this beautifully preserved home is a rare offering that combines exceptional investment potential with historic Harlem grandeur.
