☞ DWELL: 420 Convent Avenue Reduced



After debuting back in March at $3.5 million (one of the highest asking prices uptown), Number 420  Convent Avenue has now made a large price reduction and now has been listed for $2.99 million. For those who want a fully restored townhouse in one of Harlem's historic districts,  this corner building at 148th Street in Hamilton Heights might be the way to go since it has some high end, period appropriate finishes. The 19-foot-wide, single-family home has reportedly over 5,400 square foot of space altogether and everything from the infrastructure to the original details have all gone through an extreme renovation in the past two years: LINK

A smaller, gut-renovated house with less details in South Harlem has hit the $3 million mark this year but apparently the location also aided in the record sale: LINK

  1. This house is AMAZING! No detail has been spared and the entire renovation is exquisite. I've only been in there once but it made my head spin to think of the effort it took to get it to its current state. Hats off to the owners. Quite possibly the best renovation I've seen in Harlem. They will be missed!

    How do people feel about the half-floor bathroom? Cool? Too much?

    Does that help or hurt the value of a large house?
