Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.
Four units sit in this 1910 building at 251 West 122nd Street, and each one gets a private entrance. Its outdoor space is a private yard alongside a private outdoor area of over 60 square feet, and a private yard is a meaningful amenity in Manhattan.
Inside, the listing points to hardwood floors, crown molding, high ceilings and a decorative fireplace, details that suit a building of this age. Pre-war construction can appeal to buyers who value architectural detail, and this one has plenty of it. Walk-in closets add to the everyday use of the rooms.
The building has four bathrooms across 3,780 square feet, and laundry is in the building. It's a three-story walk-up, so the layout is easy to take in once you're inside.
The 125 St station on the A, B, C and D is about 6 minutes on foot, and the 2 and 3 at 125 St are about 8 minutes away. Morningside Park is about 6 minutes on foot, and Lincoln Market is about 3 minutes away. The Apollo Theater is about 4 minutes on foot.
