About this apartment rental

Your own private Harlem hideaway. A quiet dreamy oasis for your busy New York stay. Enjoy life in an 1895 brownstone in one of the city's most charming historic neighborhoods. NOTE: This is just one of three unique units in the building. We also have a Garden Apartment and a Studio Apartment.

The Parlor is a fully furnished one bedroom apartment. It is on the 1st floor of a landmarked private brownstone townhouse in the Mount Morris Historic District in the most coveted area of Harlem.

This apartment features 12' ceilings, modern furnishings and professionally designed accents. All lights are on dimmer switches to provide an intimate setting. There is a video buzzer/intercom system for guest entry.

The living room has a 46'' LED smart flat screen television with the local station provided and as well as a remote control radio/iPod player with a playlist of blues and jazz. Wireless Internet access is also provided. The huge mirrored wood decorative fireplace creates a dramatic focal point. The leather sofa folds out to become a super comfortable memory foam queen-size bed, the highest quality available. Original built-in shutters fold out for privacy as well as light control. But the huge south facing windows provide an iconic street view under the spreading honey locust tree canopy and it is a beautiful sight to see.

The custom dining table off of the kitchen seats 4 and has an adjustable light above it.

The kitchen features stainless steel appliances: large refrigerator with auto ice maker, dishwasher, four burner gas range with oven and a built-in microwave/fan. Also provided are a blender, toaster, coffee maker, dishes and flatware, glassware and mugs, knife set, cooking pots and pans and utensils. There are plenty of cabinets and under-counter lighting. Dishwasher detergent is provided, as well a filtered water pitcher.

The washer and dryer are next to the bathroom. Detergent is provided. The cabinet next to it holds bedding, extra towels, an iron as well as plenty of storage space.

The all white subway tiled bathroom has a vintage claw-foot bathtub with shower option, as well as hamper, hair dryer, timer exhaust fan. A vintage towel rack and vintage art deco mirror add charm. The ceiling light is dimmable.

The bedroom is accessible though beautiful sliding pocket doors with intricate original woodwork above. The art deco wood wardrobe has ample size as well as drawers and trouser hangers. Original wood wainscoting and fireplace add charm to the bedroom. The memory foam queen bed features wall hung vintage reading lights and is next to the window, providing gentle garden breezes. A variable speed overhead fan adds to the luxury. The large windows also house original fold-out shutters for privacy, although you will love the view of the beautiful private garden below nestled under sheltering birch trees.

You also have access to the beautifully landscaped shared backyard or you may prefer sitting out on the main stoop out front.

We really enjoyed our stay in the apartment. It has everything you need for a month's stay, including a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and a fast internet connection. The apartment is both beautifully designed and very comfortable. The location is great, right in the middle of Harlem, and staying here offers a unique opportunity to explore local culture, history and architecture. It's close to Central Park and there are several subway stations nearby with fast connections to other parts of Manhattan. The host Dennis is very helpful and responsive, and as fans of design and architecture, we really appreciated learning more from him about this beautiful building. Altogether a fantastic experience!

My wife and I stayed in Dennis's Harlem brownstone for 30 days in October-November 2022 and thoroughly enjoyed it. The unit was well equipped, clean, and beautiful. It was always a pleasure to return to our temporary home after days running around Manhattan and also just to take days off to spend at "home." The neighborhood was pleasant and quiet, and close to subway stations. Whatever we needed was always available nearby (e.g. several groceries, cafes/bakeries, pharmacies, etc.). Plus, Dennis is a wonderful host who has lived in the neighborhood for many years and is deeply involved in it. He was always responsive to any questions we had and really made a good 30 days even better. Great host, dwelling, and neighborhood in NYC!

We cannot recommend this space highly enough - it was absolutely perfect! It's a well-maintained and historic brownstone on a quiet residential tree-lined street that will help you forget that you're even in NYC. It's still super close to all sorts of great restaurants, shops, and entertainment, though, so you won't be at a loss for things to do. It's also close to a bunch of bus and subway lines which makes it easy to get wherever you need to go. The host is wonderful, communicative, kind, and there whenever you need him. 5 stars for sure!

My husband and I stayed for a month in this great appartment. Everything you need is just there! We enjoyed every day. Dennis is easy to communicate and gives you lots off information abouth the neighbourhood. With the subway around the corner you can visit every part of the city. Greenwich Village, the Bowery, Tribeca etc. And also Queens, Hoboken , Staten Island and Brooklyn. After a day full of impressions it was always very nice to come " home" at the appartment. We had a great time!!!
