DWELL: RECORD TOWNHOUSE SALE SUMMER 2020

Harlem Bespoke:  Some big townhouse sales have been moving mainly in Central Harlem this first half of the year and below are some of the most notable addresses.  Most of the listings happened in the first quarter of the year but the top contract based on a $10 million asking price just happened this week. 


Number 250 West 139th Street on Strivers Row arrived on the market in June 2019, by mid December had a contract out based on the initial $4.25 million asking and now records show that everything closed in February 2020 for that exact number.  As previously mentioned, this gut renovated single-family home is within Central Harlem's other historic district located north of 125th Street between 7th and 8th Avenue which has always been attractive to anyone familiar with the neighborhood: LINK

Number 8 West 121st Street in the coveted Mount Morris Park Historic District arrived on the market at the end of last November for an asking price set at $3.945 million, had a contract out by early March and now Streeteasy reveals that everything officially closed for $3.9 million which is a record for this year. This is one of our most favorite uptown historic districts and many buyers over the years have also found the charlm in this hidden gem of a neighborhood.  More information can be found on Streeteasy: LINK

Number 6 Hancock Place which is the The Faison Firehouse Theater  residence now has a contract out based a $10 million asking price. The 29-feet-wide facade was originally a Beaux Arts firehouse which has been converted into a performance theater and living space over the years. This is one of the highest price points in the neighborhood so a developer might end up purchasing the unique property to build upon.  More details on Streeteasy: LINK
