419 East 140th Street Landmarked, 2-Family Townhouse in Historic District Built in 1897 by renowned architect William O'Gorman, this two family home and the other 19th century homes on the block comprise the Mott Haven East Historic District. It is situated on the best block in the neighborhood and across the street from Mottley Kitchen Cafe and Restaurant. The layout here is a two bedroom one and a half bath duplex over a two bedroom two bath garden and basement duplex. The home is full of original details including tiled mantles, hardwood floors and stained glass windows. With over 4, 000 buildable square feet and 11 ceilings, there is plenty of room for you to design the floor plan and home of your dreams. The English garden is a serene oasis and has been thoughtfully planted with perennials that bloom throughout the season. The housing stock in Mott Haven represents the last chance for NYC buyers to own historical brownstones at a fraction of the cost of their Harlem and BK counterparts. Nowhere else in the city can you get a home this size, of this era with original details just 20 minutes from Grand Central. Bring your contractor and architect to tour this special property.
