Experience a blend of classic charm and contemporary luxury in this loft-like one-bedroom home, nestled in a pre-war condominium in South Harlem. As you step inside, you're greeted by an eye-catching exposed brick wall leading to a spacious great room. The room features soaring 10-foot ceilings and south-facing, City-Quiet windows that frame lush treetops, filling the space with an abundance of natural light. This versatile area provides generous space for living and dining, complete with a home office nook and smart AC built-ins that offer additional storage.
The open, windowed chef's kitchen is a culinary dream, boasting granite countertops, a subway-tile backsplash, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances. Retreat to the serene bedroom located at the quiet rear of the home, which includes a floor-to-ceiling customized closet. The spa-like marble bathroom enhances the sanctuary feel with its Duravit sink, deep Kohler soaking tub, and classic subway-tiled walls. Oak flooring, recessed lighting, and customized closets are consistently found throughout the home, adding to its refined atmosphere. An in-unit washer/dryer setup adds exceptional convenience.
Built in 1910, The Casa Loma has been thoughtfully transformed into a 16-unit pet-friendly elevator condominium. Known for the "world's greatest super," the building maintains low common charges while offering impressive amenities such as a storage locker and bicycle storage. However, the true gem is the 4,000 sq ft planted and furnished roof deck. This stunning communal space features a community herb garden and boasts panoramic views of Central Park, the Manhattan skyline, Columbia University, and the iconic Cathedral of St. John the Divine.
Location is everything, and this prime South Harlem spot is unrivaled. Just a short walk from Central Park, Morningside Park, and Columbia University, and with immediate access to the 2/3 and B/C subway lines, your commute to Midtown is a breeze. The vibrant surroundings include Harlem's famous Restaurant Row, offering a diverse selection of eateries like Lido, Harlem Tavern, and LoLo's Seafood Shack, along with numerous shopping opportunities. This home is not just a place to live—it's a lifestyle waiting to be embraced.
