☞ DWELL: 151 West 122nd Street Brownstone

OPEN HOUSE: Sunday, July 10th, 2:00 PM-3:00 PM. We saw 151 West 122nd Street at back in 2009 during that year's Mount Morris Park Historic House and the house is still on the market. Located between ACP/7th Avenue and Lenox, the 20 foot wide brownstone has a complete gut renovated interior that is officially environmentally efficient (LEED certified).  The original price was at almost $3 million a few years back but now the asking is at $2.6 million.  Check out interior photos after the jump.


This single-family, 4,750 Square foot home has contemporary finishes and many of the floors have a loft like feel to them.  All the original details are missing on the inside but the exterior facade is quite impressive.  The block itself has a hefty dose of historic architecture and is close to the express train and local shops on Lenox.  It's one of the pricier homes on the market and has been around for couple of years so the final selling number will be one to look out for.

  1. The final selling price will be way below $2.6m. I went to see this house the other week. The renovation is not of high quality. They are trying to appeal to a rich buyer who will "fall in love" with the house to pay premium prices, and this is just not that house.

    * The floorplan / layouts are very unusual, and awkward, particularly on the upper floors
    * Much of the work feel very very cheap. This isn't "loft style chic" it is "loft-style cheap"
    * The ground floor apartment isn't finished
    * There is no original detail
    * Max price for a Mt Morris townhouse is still $2.5m.... and this isn't the house that will test it.
