About this home
228 Lenox Avenue — Five-Story Two-Family Townhouse | Mount Morris Park Historic District
Fully renovated and thoughtfully reimagined, 228 Lenox Avenue is a five-story two-family Romanesque Revival townhouse set on one of Harlem's most celebrated blocks. Built in 1880 and 20 feet wide, the residence sits within the coveted Mount Morris Park Historic District and has been comprehensively restored. Original moldings, casings, shutters, 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 white oak flooring and a custom white oak staircase, a 34-foot living and dining room with a classic bay window, and a chef's kitchen with Imperial Danby marble, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bertazzoni gas range with double oven and warming drawer, wine cooler, and direct access to the enclosed rear garden.
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 trimless recessed lighting, accent lighting throughout, and hard-wired 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-like bathroom with a separate shower, freestanding soaking tub, LED mirror, and radiant heated marble floors.
The fifth floor adds three additional bedrooms, providing exceptional flexibility for family and guests.
Crowning the home is an approximately 760-square-foot private rooftop terrace with open sky views.
The garden duplex spans the garden and lower levels and features its own private entrance and rear garden access, entirely separate from the primary residence. Offering two bedrooms, a full kitchen, spacious living and dining areas, and a large recreation room, the duplex is ideally suited for extended family, multigenerational living, staff quarters, or rental use.
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....
