Elegant Harlem Quadruplex with Private Outdoor Space
Welcome to 261 West 132nd Street - a reimagined quadruplex rental that beautifully blends historic charm with modern comfort.
Thoughtfully renovated in 2017, this expansive residence spans four floors and offers generous indoor and outdoor living, wrapped in timeless architectural detail. With quality craftsmanship throughout, the home is truly move-in ready and offers flexible spaces to suit a variety of lifestyles.
Set on a 16" x 51" footprint, the home makes a statement the moment you walk through the door. Located on one of Harlem's most picturesque tree-lined blocks, it delivers the tranquility of a residential street alongside the space and sophistication of a thoroughly updated home.
The main level is open and airy, with soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and a seamless layout that flows out to an oversized balcony-ideal for entertaining or unwinding. A convenient powder room is also located on this level. Down below, the 16" x 38" garden is your private escape-perfect for relaxing, planting, or enjoying a little fresh air.
Across four levels, the home showcases original decorative fireplaces, exposed brick, warm hardwood floors, and elegant woodwork. The modern chef's kitchen offers both style and function. All four bedrooms feature ensuite baths, generous closet space, and can easily accommodate king-sized or double beds. Whether you're working from home, hosting guests, or needing a space to unwind or work out, this layout adapts with ease.
Additional features include a washer/dryer on the third floor, graceful stairway landings ideal for showcasing art or photography, and a top-floor bonus room that leads to a private balcony and fenced-in rooftop-ready for lounging, dining, or entertaining with city views.
Pets considered on a case-by-case basis, except as required for reasonable accommodations.
Located in the heart of Harlem's vibrant and community-rich landscape, you're just blocks from the 125th Street corridor with Whole Foods, the newly opened Target, Sephora and Trader Joe's, and an array of beloved restaurants like Sylvia's, Red Rooster, and Harlem Shake. Neighborhood favorites such as Harlem Hops, Abyssinia, Sugar Monk, and Honey Well are all nearby.
Transit options abound with the 2/3, A/D express, and B/C local trains close by, and LaGuardia Airport just a quick trip away. Enjoy weekend strolls or playtime at nearby St. Nicholas Park or take in the architectural beauty of the City College campus just a few blocks north.
