Property Description for 153 West 120th Street

STUNNING! 153 West 120th Street is a classic Renaissance Revival-style townhouse situated within the Mount Morris Park Historic District, contributing to the neighborhood's renowned landmarked streetscape of late 19th-century architecture. Rarely does a property capture the soulful elegance of historic New York while offering the sophisticated ease of a modern renovation, but this legal three-family brownstone does exactly that. Spanning four pristine stories, this residence is a masterclass in versatility, serving as both a grand primary home and an income producer. The heart of the building is the owner’s duplex, where a spectacular, loft-like living area unfolds with soaring ceilings and an effortless flow. The open kitchen and dining space are designed for hosting, leading directly to a bucolic private garden that feels like a hidden sanctuary. Upstairs, the two floor-through apartments—one of which has been entirely renovated—feature high end living. Every corner of this home is bathed in natural light, thanks to a series of well-placed skylights and large windows. Beyond the interior, the lifestyle extends to a beautiful terrace for morning coffee and a finished basement that offers ample storage or recreation space. Situated on one of West Harlem’s most coveted, tree-lined blocks, the location is unbeatable. You’re just moments from three iconic parks and the vibrant energy of Harlem’s dining and entertainment scene. With Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and major transportation hubs nearby, the convenience is as impressive as the architecture. This is a rare chance to own a piece of New York history that pays for itself.

Quick Profile

Central Harlem is an enclave filled with cultural landmarks, gilded age brownstones and a vibe you don’t find in many neighborhoods these days. Mount Morris Park Historic District, located in west central Harlem, is a vibrant neighborhood with tree-lined streets and gorgeous brownstones. The large 16-block section is the byproduct of Harlem’s first building boom and should not be confused with Mount Morris Park, which is a 20-acre park that was renamed Marcus Garvey Memorial Park in 1977. What can we say? Sometimes gentrification complicates things.

The boundaries of Mount Morris Park Historic District are West 118th and West 124th Streets, Fifth Avenue, and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard. The neighborhood was designated a historic district by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1971. Architectural buffs will be enamoured by the neighborhood's handsome architecture that includes late 19th- and early 20th century row houses designed in the Romanesque Revival, neo-Grec and Queen Anne style.
