Neil Patrick Harris’ Harlem Brownstone Lists for $7.3M
The actor / singer / writer / producer / tv host Neil Patrick Harris and his husband, actor and chef David Burtka spent 14 months converting the Harlem townhouse with award-winning architect, Jeffery Povero of Povero & Company.
Built in 1908, the 20-foot wide, 5-bedroom property spans 8000 square feet and features 12-foot ceilings, original wood wainscotting, oak floors, and a sycamore staircase.
The Central Harlem brownstone features a wealth of unique details, like the vintage bar, sourced from an old hotel and salvaged pre-demolition. Harris’ secret office is accessible by pressing the eyeball of a magician on a vintage poster, and the property also boasts a 10-seat screening room, rec room, wine cellar, and home gym.
There are four outdoor spaces: a 500 square foot terraced garden, an outdoor deck adjacent to the kitchen, featuring a built-in grill, a private terrace with jacuzzi accessible from the master suite, and a fully furnished rooftop deck with built-in grill and seating for 8 under a wooden pergola, featuring built-in irrigation to maintain the lush landscaping.
The bespoke residence is located in one of New York’s most historic neighbourhoods.
