A gut renovated, 19 foot wide, single-family house by the Mount Morris Park Historic District has been on the market for about a month now and is probably one of the more impressive interiors to be found uptown. Mixing traditional and modern elements is often a difficult task but the owner of 105 West 122nd Street seems to have done a nice job updating the townhouse. The property is right by Lenox Avenue's main boutique strip and just over two blocks away from the 2,3 express train. There is a lot of nice marble on the inside of this one but will it sell for the current $3.25 million asking price? Click on interior photos to enlarge.
lovely but seems a very odd room in which to place the kitchen. . .
ReplyDeleteAgreed Mum !
ReplyDeleteI am also not fond of all that marble in the bathroom ! But the living room entrance is MAGIC ! I adore a fireplace , but in the kitchen ????? lost me ! Why not put it down stairs like my friend Venus' place.
I was lost at the asking price.
ReplyDeleteDitto Mum & Ciara that kitchen took me back, it looks awkward but, the appointments are lovely. But 3.25 million in this economy? One never knows...
ReplyDeleteI actually like it. Brownstones have lots of awkward spaces and they've integrated the kitchen into one of these and have made it the heart of the house. The price is another matter!
ReplyDelete"Nice job", looks like an excellent job!
ReplyDeleteI have always dreamed of a fireplace in the kitchen (and dining room and bathroom and hallway, lol) Now that's living!
Beautiful ... I think a lot of the nicer brownstone renovations have put the kitchen in the back room on the parlor floor (if you don't have an extension, where else can you put it, and even if you do, it makes for a small kitchen and many live in their kitchens. As Megan said, brownstones can have awkward spaces so it's always somewhat of compromise. And they did a nice job integrating the kitchen (eg covering the fridge instead of the ubiquitous stainless steel!).
ReplyDeleteExquisite, but more than $3M seems like a stretch, and probably would have been a stretch even in 2007/8. But, for $2.5M? Sold, instantly.
