The Forray Team at The Corcoran Group is proud to exclusively represent 425 Convent Avenue, a beautifully renovated two-family brownstone located in the historic Sugar Hill section of Hamilton Heights.

Built circa 1901, at the height of Sugar Hill's development as one of Upper Manhattan's most distinguished residential enclaves, this exceptional home sits along one of the neighborhood's most picturesque tree-lined blocks within the Hamilton Heights/Sugar Hill Historic District. Thoughtful renovations completed in 2013 and 2017 have brought the residence fully into the present while preserving the scale, proportions, and architectural character that make these homes so distinctive.

The parlor level features soaring ceilings of more than eleven feet, along with preserved original woodwork, moldings, and architectural details throughout. The entry features custom cabinetry and a powder room, while a large living space leads to a chef's kitchen equipped with Thermador Professional appliances, generous counter space, and extensive cabinetry. At the rear, floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors open to a dining deck overlooking the private garden, creating a natural connection between the interior living space and the outdoors.

The second floor is dedicated to an expansive primary suite with an open-concept layout, including flexible space perfect for a den or office that flows into a private sleeping and dressing retreat. The suite includes a marble spa bath, Bosch washer and dryer, walk-in closets, and a decorative fireplace. One flight above, two additional bedrooms, each with walk-in closets, share a fully renovated bath and offer flexibility for family, guests, or home office space.

The garden level provides an additional one-bedroom residence of approximately 800 square feet, with high ceilings, a decorative fireplace, a king-sized bedroom, generous closets, additional storage, and its own private garden. Currently generating $38,400 ($3,200/month) annually in rental income, the apartment provides the valuable income-producing benefit of a two-family property while allowing the owner to retain the scale and privacy of a substantial townhouse.

Outside the home, Convent Avenue offers one of Hamilton Heights' most attractive residential settings. Mature trees, historic architecture, and a true neighborhood atmosphere are complemented by nearby shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences. The A, B, C, and D trains at 145th Street and the 1 train along Broadway provide convenient access throughout Manhattan.

425 Convent Avenue combines the architectural character of a circa-1901 Sugar Hill brownstone with a comprehensive modern renovation, private outdoor space, and the flexibility of an income-producing garden residence. Seize the opportunity to own a thoughtfully restored residence in one of Upper Manhattan's most architecturally significant neighborhoods.
