Neighborhoods in New York<\/a> are constantly changing. What was once hip becomes taboo and what was once pass\u00e9 becomes the place to be. So it is with the Harlem<\/a> neighborhood of Hamilton Heights<\/strong>. New York Habitat has a two-bedroom duplex accommodation<\/strong> in the heart of this thriving neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Handsomely Decorated, Two-Bedroom Duplex Townhouse:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The apartment, owned by an architect, is impeccably designed and fills up two floors of a gorgeous townhouse<\/strong>. The owner also keeps a cat in the apartment, which a past renter of the accommodation has called \u201csweet and very friendly.\u201d Therefore, if you enjoy cats, beautiful architecture, and stylish d\u00e9cor, then perhaps this Two-Bedroom Accommodation in Harlem (NY-12274) is for you.\u00a0Unfortunately, this apartment is no longer available but we do have\u00a0several\u00a0other great options in the Harlem Area.<\/p>\n

Take a look at this 2 bedroom apartment rental in Washington Heights, New York (NY-12452)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Or consider this 3-bedroom\u00a0vacation\u00a0rental in Harlem (NY-14033)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"2One appealing aspect of this apartment, besides the duplex townhouse<\/strong> and the intriguing d\u00e9cor, is the unbelievable price. Crain\u2019s New York Business reports that on average the prices of New York hotel rooms have risen since last year. The average hotel rate for the year up until now is listed at about $248 per night. New York Habitat, at the time of this article, is offering this fully furnished two-bedroom rental with Jacuzzi<\/strong> for $135 per day and $675 per week.<\/p>\n

Travel into other areas of Manhattan (like Times Square and Rockefeller Center) is incredibly convenient. The townhouse is a brief walk to the 1, A, B, C, and D trains. The A and D trains travel express and reach 59th Street in midtown Manhattan in only two stops.<\/p>\n

Hamilton Heights, Harlem:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The rental, as stated above, is on the second and third floors of a Harlem townhouse. According to the Hamilton Heights \u2013 West Harlem Community Preservation Organization, the pride and joy of the neighborhood are the gorgeous array of townhouses designed in various styles such as Dutch, Beaux Arts, Queen Anne, and Romanesque Revival.<\/p>\n

Due to the hard work of community preservationists and the beauty of these houses, large portions of the neighborhood have become landmark areas. These areas have since been renamed the Hamilton Heights Historic District Extension and the Hamilton Heights\/Sugar Hill Historic District.<\/p>\n

\"2While this townhouse is not located in the heart of Midtown West<\/a>‘s Times Square, it is close to an array of museums, restaurants, and theaters that have become staples of Harlem life. Such locations are the world famous Apollo Theater and historic night spot, The Cotton Club. It is due to the rich culture and history of the area that the Community Preservation Organization has called it \u201ca neighborhood like no other.\u201d<\/p>\n

What makes this two-bedroom a Hidden Gem?<\/strong><\/p>\n

This two-bedroom apartment is split between two floors of a historic Harlem townhouse<\/strong>. The cat is charming, the d\u00e9cor is interesting, and the neighborhood is a thriving cultural center<\/strong>. Also, how many New York apartments<\/a> can you find that have a Jacuzzi<\/strong> at this price? These numerous attributes all add up to make this two-bedroom a Hidden Gem. Also if you like the neighborhood, we have plenty of other nice and comfy vacation rentals in Harlem<\/a> for you.<\/p>\n
