This 19th-century brownstone is part of the Manhattan Avenue West 120th–123rd Streets Historic District, and has benefitted from those preservation efforts in helping maintain its historic character. Around 2020, new, historic-approved windows were installed and brownstone repair was undertaken. In 2025, flashing, waterproofing, and new gutters were installed on the roof. The house received a brand-new boiler in 2026.
The airy, loft-like layout of the house lends itself to modern living, with charming elements such as decorative fireplaces, exposed brick, exposed beams, and hardwood floors.
