5-bedroom house for sale in Harlem

A rare opportunity to own a beautifully renovated two-family home in Harlem, offering an expansive four-bedroom owner's triplex, a separate one-bedroom garden residence, a full-height lower recreation level, and an exceptionally large private backyard. Designed with an impressive 20-foot width and finished with remarkable attention to detail, this home combines generous proportions, sophisticated interiors, and extraordinary flexibility. No detail has been spared-recessed lighting runs throughout, and even the closets are thoughtfully illuminated. The owner's triplex begins on the parlor floor with a dramatic, sun-filled great room that seamlessly unites the living, dining, and kitchen areas. Three tall front windows flood the living room with natural light, while wide-plank hardwood floors and extensive recessed lighting create a bright, refined atmosphere. The open layout offers exceptional scale for both comfortable everyday living and large gatherings. At the center of the home, the beautifully appointed kitchen features sleek natural-wood cabinetry, an oversized stone-topped island with a gas cooktop, double wall ovens, and a full-height refrigerator and freezer. Sculptural woven pendant lights add warmth above the island, while abundant cabinetry and preparation space make the kitchen as functional as it is visually striking. A beautifully crafted staircase with wood treads and ornate black ironwork serves as an architectural focal point and connects all three levels of the residence. At the rear of the parlor floor, broad glass doors open directly onto a substantial private deck-an outdoor living room ideal for dining, lounging, and entertaining. Stairs lead to the oversized backyard below, offering enough space to create multiple outdoor zones. There is room for gardening, recreation, a children's play area, a seasonal pool, hot tub, sauna pod, or a combination of these while still preserving generous open space. The second floor is anchored by an impressive primary suite with the proportions of a true private retreat. Three tall windows provide abundant light, and the room easily accommodates a king-size bed as well as a separate sitting area. Two walk-in closets offer exceptional storage. The spa-like primary bathroom features a long double vanity, an expansive illuminated mirror, a freestanding soaking tub, and an oversized frameless glass-enclosed shower. The shower is finished with contrasting hexagonal tile and includes a rainfall showerhead, handheld fixture, built-in niche, and multiple controls. A second bedroom on this level also includes a spacious closet and its own en-suite bathroom with a tub. The top floor offers two additional light-filled bedrooms, each with a private en-suite bathroom and generous closet space. A dedicated laundry closet with a tiled floor is conveniently located on this level, together with an additional hallway closet for even more storage. In total, all four bedrooms within the owner's residence enjoy the privacy of their own en-suite bathrooms. Comfort is enhanced by three-zone air conditioning, allowing each level of the triplex to be controlled independently. Skylight allows for the light to flood the house. The separate garden residence features one bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, an additional powder room, recessed lighting, split-system air conditioning, and direct access to the backyard. Below, a full-height lower level provides additional recreation space, a full bathroom, and its own laundry area. This flexible level is well suited for a media room, home gym, office, studio, playroom, guest area, or other permitted use. With its exceptional width, elegant renovation, multiple outdoor spaces, abundant storage, individual climate control, two laundry areas, and versatile two-family configuration, this turnkey Harlem home offers the scale and comfort of a private townhouse together with valuable income-producing potential.
