Why You’ll Love It…
This corner apartment gets great natural light thanks to a total of eight windows, which are all generously sized. New hardwood floors and an open floor plan create a modern and updated feel. The apartment starts with the kitchen area, which has its own large closet and plenty of cabinet space. A suite of stainless steel appliances, including a mounted microwave, full-size oven, and dishwasher, make this space perfect for any home chef. Even better? There’s a washer/dryer combo, so you can do your laundry without ever leaving your apartment.
The living area is open to the kitchen, and has ample space for both a dining table and a couch or sectional. On the other side of the living room is the bedroom, which features a whopping four windows and a large closet. Near the entryway to the apartment, the windowed bathroom offers a deep soaking tub and spacious vanity, all in a clean and bright monochromatic white.
In New York, what’s outside the unit is just as important as what’s inside. And luckily, this unit belongs to a condo building with front desk security, an on-site gym, a storage room, and an elevator. The building is also located right on Jackie Robinson Park, a neighborhood staple that features a pool, a recreation center, sports fields and courts, and a bandshell that hosts concerts in the warmer months. On the surrounding blocks, you’ll find everything from jazz clubs to Ethiopian restaurants. The A, B, C, D, and 3 trains are all nearby, as well as multiple bus lines.
…And Why You Might Not
At 600 square feet, this apartment is certainly larger than many 1-bedrooms in Manhattan, but might be small for some buyers. Aside from the, there’s not much to nitpick here. So, if you’ve been looking to buy in Harlem, be sure to check this one out!
