The Duplex includes
4 large bedrooms with 4 queen size beds, 2 single couches, a big dinning room and living room, a big kitchen, a lovely big terrace( big enough to have dinner outside when the weather is nice) and a wonderful garden where you can make barbecues.
Perfect for family-friend gatherings can sleep comfortably up to 8 people .this beautiful and spacious brownstone (260 m2= 2600sqft) is located very conveniently in west Harlem 2 blocks from the 2 and 3 express trains(exactly 12mn train ride to time square and there is a train every 3 to 5mn).
Amazing historic house and amazing Harlem neighborhood. We really loved it here, it's so vibrant with tons of things to do a short walk away, for all ages: parks, restaurants, groceries, shopping, bars, cafes, etc. ...and 3 minutes to the subway. And you get to come back to a cozy, spacious, tastefully decorated home..Truly a gem. Thanks again!

We had a fantastic time staying at Razia's beautiful brownstone. Upon arrival we were greeted by a very welcoming Razia, who gave us a thorough tour of her home and answered all of our questions about the brownstone and the community. We were also greeted by Ayan, a very nice friend and neighbor of the home who helps look after the space when Razia is traveling. Razia let us know that she lives close by and would be available any time day and night. It was nice knowing that if we needed immediate assistance, either she or Ayan would respond quickly. Of course, we never needed to call either of them for anything, as the house was perfectly lovely! Razia's home had everything we needed to prepare meals. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of everything and we never ran out of clean dishes. It's nice traveling and not doing dishes! We enjoyed many of our meals at the table on the back porch, which is conveniently located right off the kitchen and overlooks a very sweet lush back yard. Razia's entire home is beautifully decorated with eclectic furnishings that she has collected from her travels abroad. The wonderful lamps throughout the place created a very warm ambiance. This colorful comfortable interior reflects the colorful multi cultural neighborhood the brownstone is in. One of our favorite things to do was to sit on the front steps at night, as this was when we really got to connect with neighbors and passerbys, who were all super friendly and welcoming. The brownstone is also convenient and within walking distance to everything a traveler might want... Grocery, coffee shops, bus stops, subway, churches, live music (top notch jazz) and restaurants (there's a trendy super yummy taco shop on the block). And Central Park...took us 10 easy min to walk there. The neighborhood felt totally safe to us. So much so, that we felt 100% comfortable leaving our teens home alone, as well as letting them explore the area on their own. Cozy beds! Quiet street! Fantastic place! We will be back!

We were a group of 10. Our stay at Razia's place was delightful. We enjoyed the neighborhood with coffee shops, market and easy access to the subway. Her place is gorgeous: it successfully strikes a lovely balance of modern style and complete comfort. We loved that bedrooms are on different levels, each near a full bathroom. We will definitely book Razia's place again!

We enjoyed our stay very much. Especially the living room area is unique. The house offers lots of space and rooms for a larger group. Location is close to the Metro ( 3 min walk).
The townhouse was the perfect location for us. We will be back.

It was a lovely apartment, spacious, in a great location in Harlem, near metro. We'll probably wait until our kids are older to return when they can better appreciate the sophisticated furniture.

We were part of a group of 8 friends who stayed here in late September. It was perfect. We each had a large bedroom and ensuite bathroom and the living and dining area was great for cooking breakfast and generally relaxing.
Location excellent - just a few blocks north of Central Park and with subway and supermarket close by. Great restaurants including the Red Rooster.
Razia was an excellent host. She welcomed us on arrival and told us about the neighborhood.
Would recommend it and would be good for families bringing children and grandchildren on vacation. Lots of room to spread out.

We were a group of 7 adults/teenagers on our first visit to New York. This apartment is fantastic! Really spacious, beautifully decorated with artworks, lots of bathrooms, lovely bedrooms with storage space. The kitchen has everything you could need - even an electric kettle which was a welcome sight for British tea drinkers- and there is a lovely outside seating area.
The apartment is only 2 blocks from the subway station, which is on the express line to the midtown area so very fast to get there. There are lots of good food shops within easy walking distance, and only 6 blocks to Central Park. The street itself is quiet. It was really nice to stay in a real residential part of New York, rather than a downtown hotel.
There were board games provided, proper American TV which the teenagers loved, and enough bathrooms to stop long delays in the mornings.
We met Razia as we arrived, and Alan took good care of us on arrival and leaving. We also met your very nice housekeeper.
This is such a cool place, we all wanted to live here! i can't imagine a better place to stay for a group of family or friends.
Thank you Razia for letting us borrow your home!

This was a phenomenal property with exceptional service. Very much worth the price and I would recommend it to any small group. Conveniently located on the north side of Central Park. We look forward to returning next year.

Overall, our group of 13 had a great experience here. It is spacious with plenty of bedrooms and a large dining/living area. The kitchen has ample cooking supplies and will likely suffice for any cooking needs (just know that you will have to buy dishwasher detergent and things of that nature when you arrive). The bathrooms are clean and recently remodeled. The master bath is as spectacular as it looks in the pictures. The neighborhood is safe and the street itself is quaint. Being 2 blocks from a main subway station and 1 block from a good grocery store was very convenient.
Two things to be aware of: 2-3 of the beds do not have traditional mattresses with springs in them. They have a cloth pad that looks like a thick duvet and they are pretty uncomfortable (we had 2 young adults who had a tough time adjusting to them). Also, be sure to specify how the security deposit ($800) will be received and returned (cash/check/card) before you arrive.
Other positives: wifi is great, stereo system is easy to use with an iPhone, and the back patio is cool. Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay and we would stay there again. Razia is friendly and quick to reply through email. Alan is the house manager and the person you will interact with the most. We didn't need to contact him very often during our stay. But when we did, he could usually provide what we needed.
Enjoy your stay!

My family and I (4 couples in total) enjoyed a week in this house for Christmas 2016. There was plenty of room for all of us with each couple having our own bedroom and bathroom. There was also plenty of kitchenware and everything needed to self cater. We were close to the subway which enabled us to get around to all of the different things we wanted to see on our trip. We felt safe in the neighbourhood and found it a fairly quiet area. The house is in a 'lived in' condition but this suited us as I was a little worried it would be somewhere we couldn't relax and had to worry about damaging any 'delicate' furniture or carpets. There is a massive dining table which was great for family meals, a piano, games and heaps of books. We felt 'at home' as soon as we arrived. We would definitely recommend the property and go back again.

We are 2 families (4 adults, “kids” between 10 to 21 years) and came to New York for a city holiday.
We stayed 8 nights in this great house. The flat was very spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well equipped and we used it a lot. There was also a lovely terrace, in which we had breakfast and few dinners. Bedrooms were big and beds comfortable. The open floor plan was perfect for watching sports on TV and spending time with others.
At the arrival Razia showed us the house and gave general information about the neighborhood. Both Razia and Alain (the house manager) were very helpful and responded very quickly to any questions/requests during our stay. The neighborhood was pleasant with many supermarkets and restaurants. The subway was very close (express lines 2 and 3 to downtown). Also the Central Park was within walking distance.
We had a wonderful stay and look forward to coming back one day. Thank you Razia!

Beautiful! In New York for a graduation, 10 of us (9 adults, 1 toddler) stayed a week at this fabulous home. The house is spacious and wonderfully decorated, with a library in one hall and a piano, both of which we used. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds comfortable, the linens crisp and the courtyard a great place for a BBQ (all set with café lights, blooming plants and small tree!). The open floor plan was perfect for accommodating card games, corner conversations, sprawling on the couches to read and watching movies all at the same time and without crowding one another. The street is quiet, yet close to the subway a few blocks away. Alan was pleasant, attentive and provided a thorough orientation to all the house's features. We had a wonderful stay and will be back.

We had a wonderful Christmas celebration in this home.It was very comfortable and close to all conveniences (transportation,shops..).
My Mum and nephew particularly enjoyed being able to play the piano,and played Christmas songs on Christmas Eve.
There was lot of room for all of us which made it easy to live together for 8 days (we were 3 family generations)
Great place,beautifully furbished,good location.We really felt at home
