This handsome brownstone was built in 1886 as part of a row of four contiguous residences at 116 through 122 by Samuel Colcord, a prominent builder who left the ministry after a doctor advised him to take up an outdoor occupation. Known as Lucky Sam, Colcord also became a well-known peace advocate after World War I. His architect, Henry L. Harris, purposely designed a pleasingly eclectic mix of architectural styles on the block. This house itself features elements of both Queen Anne and Romanesque Revival styles. Details include original doors; wainscot paneling, pier mirror and stairwell railings in the vestibule; and 9 fireplaces. Other features include high ceilings and fantastic light as this south-facing lot sits on a high block.

Appraised for over $6 million, yet priced to sell at less than $900 per square foot, this property represents a great value and opportunity for a home and/or multi-family investment. Live near restaurants, shopping, transportation, iconic recreational and cultural attractions, including Central Park and the American Museum of Natural History, and all the Upper West Side has to offer!
