Located on West 138th Street on Striver's Row in one of West Harlem's most historic and iconic blocks, you will enjoy this beautifully custom architectural designed townhouse suitable for up to ten guests. This townhouse has received a full gut renovation taking into account the original details which have been restored and finished/ furnished with a modern-contemporary interior design. Our home is without a doubt the perfect vacation home if you are looking for a luxurious, convenient, and easily accessible location. Spacious and comfortable short or long term visit.
Our home features its own private entrance on the ground level of the townhouse. The owner lives in the top portion of the townhouse which is separated by a locked door located in the stairway, giving any guest their own privacy throughout their entire stay. There are a total of four queen size beds and one full size bed accommodating up to ten guests. Please note: Each bed is a pull out sofa but extremely comfortable and thick-style mattress pad to allow the maximum amount of comfort-ability. Bed sheets, towels and pillows are included within every reservation.
As you enter the home and open the front door you will be greeted by the living room which is where the first two queen sized sofa beds are located along with a wall-hung TV with cable. Exiting the living room area you will enter the main hallway which allows access to a full bathroom with standing shower, large eat-in chef's kitchen and custom architectural staircase allowing entry to the second lower level of this duplex. This home allows access to two full floors.
The large eat-in chef's kitchen accommodates all ten guests with plenty of silverware and glasses for each individual. The kitchen has a full stock of pots and pans, plates and bowls, coffee maker and wine cooler in the office area.
Exiting the kitchen in the northern portion of this home, you will find the laundry room with a washer/dryer and the entrance to the outdoor patio designed with modern/contemporary furniture and plants alongside a beautiful custom tall wooden fence decorated with festive lights. This would be your designated smoking area or just a nice place to hang out and enjoy some fresh air.
Once you enter the lower floor you will find a common living space with wall hung tv and a queen size sofa bed. In this area you can also find the office area with the wine cooler and the second bathroom which is another full bathroom with a standing shower. There is free wifi throughout the entire home.
