☞ DWELL: 133 West 122nd Street In Contract

One of the most distinct brownstone townhouses adjacent to the Mount Morris Park historic district has finally gone into contract after being on the market for the past couple of years.  Number 133 West 122nd Street had an asking price of $2.895 million back at the end of 2009 but eventually was reduced to $2.395 million.  This 17-foot-wide townhouse is part of a row of buildings just west of Lenox Avenue that are easily one of the most striking in the city. Apparently fully restored by an architect who worked on the New York branch of famed Japanese department store Takashimaya, the single family, five bedroom, five bath, 4,500 square foot building has all the modern underpinnings with the original details intact. The closest train is the express 2,3 at 125th Street and the boutique shops of the Mount Morris Park Historic District are only a block away.
