Original moldings, fireplaces, vestibule, and entry doors were preserved alongside modern WiFi-enabled systems, zoned HVAC, and refined finishes throughout. The primary residence spans the parlor through fifth floors. The parlor announces the home's scale immediately: 11.5-foot ceilings, 7.5-inch wide-plank white oak flooring, a 34-foot living and dining room with a classic bay window, and a chef's kitchen with Imperial Danby marble, Sub-Zero, and Bertazzoni range opening to a private landscaped garden patio. The third floor is devoted to an expansive entertaining great room which offers remarkable flexibility and can accommodate multiple seating areas, a media lounge, or library. The room was thoughtfully designed to accommodate a wet bar, with infrastructure already in place. Integrated lighting with trimless recessed fixtures and built-in speakers enhance the space, creating a fully immersive entertaining level. A spacious additional bedroom or home office suite with an en suite bath completes the floor. The fourth-floor primary suite offers a private terrace, walk-in closet, and spa bath with steam shower, soaking tub, and radiant heated marble floors. The fifth floor adds three additional bedrooms. Crowning the home: a ~760 sq ft private rooftop terrace with open sky views. The garden duplex, which spans the garden and lower levels with a fully private entrance and separate access, functions as a self-contained residence: two bedrooms, full kitchen, living and dining room, and a large recreation room. Ideal as a rental, guest quarters, or multigenerational living. Located in the heart of Harlem’s historic brownstone district, 228 Lenox Avenue sits steps from Marcus Garvey Park and the vibrant dining scene along Lenox Avenue and Frederick Douglass Boulevard, often referred to as Harlem’s Restaurant Row.
