## Description

Manhattan’s most compelling 1-bedroom condo under $1M — complete with an extraordinary private backyard and no board approval.

Welcome to Residence 2 at 121 West 131st Street, a rare floor-through parlor-level home that delivers something almost impossible to find in Manhattan at this price point: authentic brownstone charm, modern convenience, and a sprawling 435 SF private backyard that lives like your own urban oasis.

Set within an 1890s Harlem brownstone on one of the neighborhood’s most picturesque landmark blocks, this beautifully renovated home seamlessly blends historic character with modern comforts, including central HVAC with Nest, an in-unit washer/dryer, and an open kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Original details such as soaring 11-foot ceilings, exposed brick, stained glass, ornate millwork, a decorative fireplace, and rich hardwood floors have been thoughtfully preserved throughout.

Tall south-facing windows bring warm natural light into the living space, while the flexible floor plan offers a dedicated dining area that can readily function as a home office, nursery, or formal dining space.

The bedroom is quiet, bright, and exceptionally functional, featuring a wall of windows, a separate dressing area, and a walk-in closet with custom built-ins.

And then there is the backyard.

Rarely does a Manhattan one-bedroom offer outdoor space of this scale and usability. Measuring approximately 435 square feet, this private sun-filled retreat is beautifully outfitted with a wood deck, custom planters, and ample room for dining, lounging, entertaining, or simply enjoying a peaceful escape from the city.

A private 65 SF storage room transfers with the apartment, adding even more flexibility.

Residents enjoy a video intercom system, a fully equipped gym, and a furnished common roof deck with BBQ grills. Located moments from the 2/3 express trains, with easy access to the A/B/C/D and Metro-North, this quiet brownstone block places you near Harlem’s best dining, shopping, and daily conveniences including Whole Foods, Target, and neighborhood favorites just minutes away.

For buyers seeking charm, outdoor space, flexibility, and true condominium ownership under $1M, there is simply very little else like this in Manhattan.
