Property Details
Description
Rising five full stories and nineteen feet wide, 2070 Fifth Avenue is a substantial Central Harlem townhouse offering exceptional scale, flexibility, and long-term potential. The building contains approximately 5,200 square feet above grade and roughly 6,324 square feet in total including a finished cellar, along with approximately 1,400 square feet of outdoor space across the front yard, rear yard, terrace, deck, and roof. Currently configured as three residences, the property presents multiple avenues for ownership, income generation, or future single-family conversion. A fully ducted central HVAC system serves the entire building, with independent climate controls by floor and within each residence. All units include private in-home laundry and video intercom access, supporting both day-to-day comfort and operational efficiency. The owner’s triplex spans the parlor, garden, and cellar levels, creating a spacious residence that lives with the autonomy of a private home. Ceiling heights of over ten feet enhance the sense of volume across the full nineteen-foot width of the main living and dining level, while the garden floor introduces additional living space, bedroom accommodations, and direct access to the private rear yard. The finished cellar further expands functionality with a half bath and flexible recreation, office, or storage space. A full-floor two-bedroom residence occupies the third level, offering strong natural light through large front-facing windows and quieter rear-facing bedrooms. Above, the top two floors combine to form a substantial five-bedroom duplex, where full-width living areas, approximately ten-foot ceilings, exposed brick accents, and arched windows introduce both openness and architectural character. Outdoor space totaling approximately 1,400 square feet includes multiple terraces and a shared roof with open sky views and further potential for outdoor enjoyment. Projected gross rental income is approximately $175,000 annually based on the current configuration, with relatively low annual real estate taxes enhancing overall yield. Located in the heart of Central Harlem, 2070 Fifth Avenue is moments from Whole Foods, Sylvia’s, and Red Rooster, as well as the newly reopened Studio Museum in Harlem. Mount Morris Park, the National Black Theatre, and the historic Astor Row townhouses are all nearby, placing the property within one of Manhattan’s most vibrant residential settings.
