About this home
<p>124 West 131st Street A Landmark Brownstone, Masterfully Reimagined</p> <p>Welcome to 124 West 131st Street, a rare and remarkable offering in the heart of vibrant Central Harlem. This iconic, late-1800s landmarked brownstone has been masterfully restored on the exterior and completely reimagined inside as a luxurious single-family residence. Behind its striking, landmarked brownstone facade lies a residence that honors its historic roots while delivering every contemporary comfort.</p> <p>Spanning four expansive floors plus a cellar, this 4,688 SF residence (3,750 SF above grade) blends thoughtful layout with meticulous design. The garden level offers a warm and inviting guest suite, a dedicated laundry room, and a flexible entertainment space. Below, a full sub-cellar is primed for a wine room, gym, or recreation.</p> <p>The parlor floor stuns with soaring ceilings, Marvin custom windows, and rich herringbone flooring. A chef's kitchen anchors the level-equipped with top-tier appliances, elegant custom cabinetry, and sophisticated stone surfaces-all opening onto a private garden. A sleek powder room is thoughtfully tucked away to enhance flow and function.</p> <p>The entire second level is devoted to the primary suite, which includes a serene bedroom, a spa-quality bath with a dramatic double steam shower and restored clawfoot tub, and an oversized walk-through dressing room.</p> <p>The top floor offers two additional bedrooms-each with its own en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet-plus a flexible bonus room, ideal for remote work, creative pursuits, or extra guests. Whether for quiet mornings or dynamic household needs, this floor offers both privacy and versatility.</p> <p>Throughout the home, no detail has been overlooked. An authentic Finnish sauna provides a daily wellness escape. Spray foam insulation has been applied throughout for superior sound and temperature control. A full sprinkler system adds peace of mind. These enhancements speak not just to quality, but to the integrity of the overall renovation.</p> <p>This home also offers future expansion potential: there are nearly 3,000 SF of unused air rights, and the layout was intentionally designed to allow for a future staircase (beneath the current skylight) should a roof deck or upper-level addition ever be desired.</p> <p>NOTE ON PROPERTY TAX: Previously classified as a multi-unit rental, the property has been legally restored as a single-family residence. This change qualifies it for Tax Class 1, which generally offers lower property taxes and capped annual increases. For the buyer, this means greater long-term tax predictability, stability, and savings.</p> <p>Set on a preserved, landmarked block in Central Harlem, 124 West 131st is part of a historic enclave known for its architectural richness and cultural vibrancy. This section of Harlem is one of few that has been protected by landmark status, ensuring long-term value and neighborhood character for generations to come.</p> <p>Located just moments from parks, shopping, celebrated restaurants, and subway lines, this home is not just a place to live, but a lasting investment in New York heritage.</p> <p>Thoughtfully executed, boldly beautiful, and ready for its next chapter-124 West 131st Street is not just a home, it's a piece of New York history, redefined for modern life.</p>...
