    What's special

    253 West 121st Street is an 18'-wide, classic multi-family townhouse built in 1910 and located on an attractive tree-lined street off of Harlem Restaurant Row, West 121st Street between Adam Clayton Blvd and Frederick Douglas Blvd. This two-family brownstone has a 4 bedroom, 3 bath owner's triplex, and a pristine garden level one bedroom floor through apartment to generate additional income. Everything in this two-family home is in great condition, from the HVAC (heating and cooling systems) to the plumbing and electrical. Additionally, the open concept design of the house allows it to be flooded with natural sunlight. Its proximity to the 125th commercial corridor offers an abundance of shopping, entertainment, and culture, whether you're heading to the outlets, the Apollo, or local museums. Enjoy shopping at Whole Foods and dining out at neighborhood favorites like BLVD Bistro, Red Rooster, Melba's, Minton's, Lido, and Harlem Tavern. Grab local coffee and pastries in the morning at Levain, Les Ambassades or Double Dutch Espresso, and swing by Mess Hall or 67 Orange later in the evening to enjoy some of Harlem's top-rated cocktails. Convenient to public transportation, this neighborhood truly has the best Harlem has to offer.
