9 W 131st St, #B4

This breathtaking two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom duplex penthouse invites outside indoors with skylights, multiple outdoor spaces and stunning views — all set in the heart of vibrant Harlem. Arrive at lower level of the beautifully updated, 1,536-square-foot home, and take in the expansive great room stretching nearly 23-feet by 17-feet. Here, ample crown moldings and gleaming Brazilian cherry wood floors set a chic tone. Lit by two massive south-facing windows and warmed by a wood burning stone fireplace, this airy room provides ample space for living and dining areas and the perfect location for gracious entertaining. The modern, open kitchen stands ready to accommodate large dinner parties or casual meals with equal skill thanks to stainless steel Kitchen Aid Architect Series appliances, expansive quartz counter-tops and ample cherry wood cabinetry. Head up the staircase — lit from above thanks to a large skylight — and find the home's enviable private quarters. The south-facing master suite is anchored by a gorgeous 150-square-foot private terrace offering up views all the way across Central Park and down to One World Trade Center. Indoors, you'll find rows of large closets, including one with an integrated flat-screen television, and a spa-like en suite bathroom featuring a walk-in multi-jet shower and twin sinks. The second bedroom is flanked by two outdoor spaces — a large terrace and a balcony — and includes a roomy closet and equally well-appointed en suite bathroom. An in-unit GE washer-dryer, central air and heat, custom closet systems, downstairs powder room, plus a deeded approximately 91-square-foot storage unit add to this lovely home's array of modern conveniences. This is an ideal opportunity for homeowners or investors as the unit can be delivered with current tenant in place, if desired. The unit has a 421A Tax Abatement for another 15 plus years. Current taxes are only $100 dollars annually, and the incredibly low monthly charges total just $676 per month. The Parkview is a modern, pet-friendly condominium complex created in 2004 by combining three mid-rise townhouse buildings. The Parkview offers residents video security, a common roof deck and a large common yard with grilling area. Set in Central Harlem, neighborhood parks dot the immediate area with large Marcus Garvey and St. Nicholas parks nearby. Here, the renowned Harlem dining and nightlife scene is your personal playground, and the great shops of 125th — including a new Whole Foods Market opening soon — are at your disposal. Head to the Eastside, Westside or Downtown with ease, thanks to 2/3, 4/5/6, A/C and B/D trains all within walking distance.
