what I think of it :
Designed by the well-renowned architects Bruce Price and Clarence S. Luce, this classic Georgian style townhouse with buff colored brick and Indiana limestone is found in the highly sought after St. Nicholas district, 'Striver's Row'. The profusion of turn-of-the-century architectural details, including terra cotta window treatments, a delicate wrought-iron balcony extending from the base of the full-length first story window and overhanging cornice surmounted by a handsome stone balustrade, will sweep you away to an era gone by. Featuring an owner's triplex and two studio apartments on the ground level, this townhouse is well suited for comfortable living and offers income potential. Entryway leads to a elegant parlor, perfect for entertaining, with high ceilings, oversized windows and a fireplace. The center hallway leads to a spacious dining room, with original hardwood floors and fireplace - ideal for family gatherings and dinner parties. The kitchen, which features updated cabinetry, appliances and a skylight, leads to the private outdoor garden and garage. With a private driveway reserved solely for residents of this exclusive neighborhood, this townhouse offers the potential for Harlem living at its best. This home has great bones, as the building has undergone several structural renovations, including electrical, lighting, utilities, plumbing, roof and more. This unique residence is waiting for a purchaser with an appreciation for the grand history found on this sought-after block. Bring your architect and vision for restoration.
