Property Description

The Fitzgerald, originally constructed in 1892 as one of Harlem's landmark educational institutions, was thoughtfully transformed into a boutique luxury condominium while preserving its historic architectural character. Today, this coveted full-service residence offers just 47 homes and has recently undergone upgrades to its lobby, hallways, fitness center, and bicycle storage facilities.

Functioning as a 3 bedroom and spanning approximately 2,700 square feet across two expansive levels, Residence 1C is one of the largest and most unique homes within The Fitzgerald. Offering the scale, flexibility, and privacy often associated with townhouse living, this exceptional duplex seamlessly blends historic architectural character with contemporary design and modern convenience

A masterclass in space planning and functionality - residence 1C offers a combination of scale, flexibility, and location-in one of Manhattan's most vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods.

The main level is defined by soaring 15-foot ceilings and oversized south-facing windows that flood the home with natural light throughout the day. Wide-plank hardwood flooring, designer wall coverings, statement lighting, and thoughtfully curated finishes create an atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and welcoming.

At the heart of the home is a beautifully designed chef's kitchen featuring a stainless steel Liebherr refrigerator, Bosch gas cooktop, Bosch electric wall oven, GE microwave, contemporary white lacquer cabinetry with convenient garage-style upper cabinets, quartz countertops, and an illuminated sage-green glass tile backsplash. Adjacent dining and living areas overlook the picturesque tree-lined streetscape, providing a tranquil backdrop throughout the changing seasons.

A conveniently located powder room near the entry foyer enhances both everyday living and entertaining.

The king-sized primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with oversized windows and a spa-inspired ensuite bath featuring a soaking tub, separate glass-enclosed shower, and generous storage.

A dramatic architectural staircase leads to the sprawling lower level, encompassing nearly 1,600 square feet of highly adaptable living space. Currently configured as a secondary living area, home office, two sleeping areas, custom built-ins, and a full bath, this remarkable level offers exceptional versatility. Whether envisioned as a wellness studio, media room, creative workspace, guest quarters, or live/work environment, the space can easily adapt to a variety of lifestyles.

Adding an element of convenience, the lower level also features a dedicated laundry room equipped with a full-size Bosch washer and dryer, along with a secondary refrigerator.

Highlights include upgraded LED recessed lighting throughout, custom window treatments, abundant storage solutions, thoughtfully positioned electrical outlets, and the uncommon advantage of separate entrances on each level of the duplex.

Ideally positioned in the heart of Central Harlem, residents enjoy immediate access to the vibrant retail corridors along 116th and 125th Streets, home to Whole Foods Market and a variety of retailers, services, and everyday conveniences. Harlem's celebrated dining scene awaits just outside your door, with acclaimed restaurants, cafés, and nightlife lining Frederick Douglass Boulevard and Lenox Avenue.

Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate close proximity to Marcus Garvey Park, Morningside Park, and Central Park, while the neighborhood's rich cultural landscape includes renowned galleries, performance venues, and historic institutions.

Commuting is effortless with nearby access to the 2, 3, B, and C subway lines, multiple bus routes, and convenient highway connections. Columbia University, City College, and numerous major employment centers are all within easy reach.
