- 62 E 131st Street presents a six-story, five-unit brownstone apartment building with interior adaptability and untapped value-add potential.
- Ideal for a user/investor who may occupy one/ two units and generate income, a single-family conversion, or be sold individually as a condo/ co-op.
- The property benefits from being in a protected tax class 2A, which results in lower taxes; a complete Certificate of Occupancy is expected by EOY.
- Within the East Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, a cultural hub between Central Park and the Bronx.
- East Harlem residents who work in Midtown or Downtown are attracted to the area due to the access to so many train stations.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Besen Partners, as exclusive agent for Ownership, is pleased to offer for sale 62 East 131st Street, New York, New York 10037, located on the south side of East 131st Street between Park and Madison Avenues in the East Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan.
Built circa 1926 and fully renovated in 2013, this six-story, elevator-served multifamily brownstone building features five spacious, free-market apartments totaling 6,013 square feet. These 900-square-foot spacious one-bedroom units (with individual elevator access) may be converted into two-bedroom units, creating additional value for future ownership. The property is newly gut-renovated and will be delivered vacant. A new elevator was installed, which provides keyed access to each individual unit on each floor.
East Harlem is a neighborhood of Upper Manhattan in New York City, north of the Upper East Side and bounded by 96th Street to the south, Fifth Avenue to the west, and the East and Harlem Rivers to the east and north. Despite its name, it is not considered part of Harlem proper, but it is one of the neighborhoods included in the broader area known as Greater Harlem. The community is notable for its contributions to the recognition of Latin culture.
According to CoStar analytics, the densely populated 2-mile radius is home to a growing population of approximately 613,674 residents, with an average household income exceeding $75,000. Approximately 65% of the realm’s households consist of one- or two-person units, and 87% of the overall housing units are renter-occupied – aligning with the subject’s build-out and capabilities.
62 E 131st Street is a premier investment opportunity with a versatile upside, supported by a protected tax classification in a market with significant barriers to entry.
