Beautiful 2-Bedroom 2-Bathroom Home in Harlem NYC for Rent or Home Exchange

Description

Hi folks! We are two meditation teachers who are moving to Chicago, as one of us is starting a PhD program. We love our home in New York, and hope to find tenants who will love it and care for it as much as we have, as we may return in a few years. We were the first to occupy our apartment, and have happily lived here for 12+ years. It’s in very good shape and all appliances are working well. We are somewhat flexible on move-in dates and on whether or not it is rented furnished or unfurnished. Earliest would be late Spring 2024, latest by Sept 2024. We are looking to rent our home for a year or more. We have lived here as a couple working from home which has worked well. We built mezzanines where we meditate, but they could be used for other purposes. Note that the mezzanines and stairs are not safe for small children (the rails are not weight bearing).
