Property Description

Spacious 1,203-square-foot duplex featuring 1.5 baths, south-facing exposure, a private outdoor patio, flexible living and work-from-home space, and an in-unit washer and dryer in the heart of Harlem. Welcome to Residence THA at The Morellino, an elevated first-floor duplex offering a rare combination of classic pre-war character, recently upgraded finishes, bright and generous living spaces, and a private outdoor retreat—all set on one of Harlem’s most charming brownstone blocks. The upper level opens into an airy kitchen, dining, and living area, where south-facing windows bring in natural light throughout the day. The windowed kitchen is outfitted with a full suite of stainless steel KitchenAid appliances—including a gas range, dishwasher, microwave, and side-by-side refrigerator—along with a glass-tile backsplash and stone countertops. A separate bedroom on this level offers additional flexibility, while a windowed bathroom with a soaking tub completes the floor. Downstairs, enjoy the privacy of a generously sized bedroom tucked away from the main living areas. And a separate den provides an ideal home office, study, or additional lounge space. A powder room, custom-built closets, and an in-unit Bosch washer and dryer add convenience to the level. From the den, glass doors open directly onto a private, fenced-in patio—a rare outdoor retreat and a true extension of the home. Recent improvements, including refinished floors and kitchen upgrades, elevate the interiors while preserving the home’s pre-war charm. Central HVAC provides year-round comfort, with radiators on the lower level available as a supplemental heat source and included in the common charges if desired. Residents of The Morellino, a pet-friendly pre-war condominium conversion, enjoy a fitness center, common rooftop, children’s playroom, virtual doorman system, and staffed reception lobby—all complemented by low common charges and real estate taxes. Located within the landmarked Mount Morris Park Historic District, the home is just a block and a half from Marcus Garvey Park and eight blocks from Central Park and Museum Mile. Columbia University and City College are also within walking distance. Harlem’s renowned dining scene—including Red Rooster, Barawine, Settepani, Sottocasa, Maison Harlem, and Sylvia’s—is close by, along with Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and Target. Convenient access to the express 2/3, 4/5/6, A/C, and B/D subway lines, M2, M7, and M101 buses, and Metro-North service provides easy connectivity throughout Manhattan and beyond.
