Deal fell through--back on the market. Don't miss out on this second chance.Downtown and Midtown are so last century. Welcome to Harlem, where the cool kids are now playing and living! Complete with charm, tranquility and atmosphere, this large 1-BR/1-BA corner apartment, located on the 5th floor of a pre-war elevator building and situated in the heart of south Harlem, sits squarely at the nexus of the placid Central Park North commune and the bustle of the district's famed boulevards.

This prized B-line unit faces both south and west, providing a flood of natural light, and it features original oak hardwood flooring, 9-foot ceilings, a grand, uniquely turreted living room and dining area, an updated and windowed kitchen, plenty of closet space, virtual doorman service, and an attentive, live-in super. Nearby are the 2/3/B/C subway lines, which make for an easy commute to Midtown (15 mins.) or Wall Street (28 mins.), as well as the M2, M3, M4, M7, and M014 bus lines to Midtown. Harlem is home to the CUNY Morningside and Columbia University campuses, St. Luke's Hospital, many parks, food markets (including the New Whole Foods), dry cleaners, fitness clubs, retail shopping, and movie theaters.

The immediate neighborhood boasts endless restaurant and café options, ranging from staples like Harlem Tavern, Harlem Pizza Co., Cantina Taquería and Tequila Bar and Sexy Taco/Dirty Cash to neo-classics like Red Rooster, Barawine, Maxwell's Central Park, Lido, 67 Orange Street, Il Caffè Latte 1, Double Dutch Espresso, Vinatería, Row House, Bier International, and Café Frederick to Levain, offering the world's best chocolate chip cookie. Apartment 5-B is located in an HDFC (income-restricted) cooperative. A buyer's gross income at the time of closing must not exceed 165% of area median income, defined as: $120,615 for a one-person household; $137,775 for two persons; and $154,935 for three persons.

Cash purchases, financing up to 80%, dishwashers, washers/dryers, and subletting are all permitted. Bank financing is readily available, and 45% of the maintenance is tax deductible. This Harlem heart-stopper is the perfect abode at the perfect price.
