2385 Barker Ave

Barker Hall Condominium is a mid‑century, six‑story residential building constructed in 1958 and attributed to S J Kessler & Sons. The property contains a mix of studios, one‑ and two‑bedroom units configured with traditional layouts and occasional flexible spaces such as office/den conversions and Murphy‑bed adaptations. Interiors commonly feature hardwood floors, eat‑in or pass‑through kitchens with stainless steel appliances and stone counters, cathedral ceilings or elevated ceiling details in some homes, multiple closets including walk‑ins, and original‑style finishes refreshed by renovations. Common building elements include a formal foyer or grand lobby, elevator service, an on‑site superintendent, communal laundry facilities, security intercom/camera systems, and reserved indoor garage parking via waitlist. Exterior amenities are modest and mostly practical: private outdoor spaces under 60 sq ft for certain units and centralized mailbox service. The building sits on a tree‑lined street in the Pelham Gardens/Bronxwood area near Pelham Parkway, the Bronx Zoo, New York Botanical Garden and local schools and shops; transit access includes nearby 2 and 5 subway lines, express bus service and quick access to the Bronx River Parkway. Pet and subleasing policies vary by unit; maintenance fees and occasional special assessments are part of ownership costs.
