NYC Architect Morris Adjmi Sells West Village Townhouse

New York City starchitect Morris Adjmi found a buyer for his four-story West Village townhouse.

The six-bedroom abode at 233 West 11th Street, asking $13.5 million, was the priciest home to enter contract in Manhattan last week, according to Olshan Realty’s weekly report. The 20-foot-wide townhouse has four bathrooms and two terraces.

Adjmi — the architect behind condos like the Huron in Greenpoint and 30 East 31st Street in NoMad — purchased the 3,400-square-foot pad in 1995 for $1.3 million and renovated it, Crain’s New York reported. He and his wife, architect Lisa Mahar, listed the home in September after they moved to Brooklyn. The couple bought a brownstone in Fort Greene for $3.3 million in February.

Matthew Steer and Nicholas Nilert of Keller Williams had the listing.

Adjmi’s property was one of 23 asking $4 million or more to land an inked deal between Dec. 23 and Dec. 29, beating the decade average for Christmas week. But the total fell short of the previous period, which saw 37 homes enter contract.

The second most expensive home to find a buyer was the penthouse at 219 East 44th Street, asking $11 million. The Turtle Bay duplex hit the market in May 2017 with an eye-popping $53 million price tag and has since endured price cut after price cut as the listing passed through three different brokerages.

The latest firm to take on the listing was Douglas Elliman, with Wendy Chang Lee and Michael Rosario representing the seller

The 4,300-square-foot unit has five bedrooms and five bathrooms. It has two terraces, one off the living room and another on the rooftop, though the upstairs terrace is not attached to the apartment.

The condo is one of six atop the Even Hotel. The building’s amenities include access to hotel services and a fitness center.

Of the 23 properties, 16 were condos, three were co-ops, one was a condop and three were townhouses. The total was down from the 37 deals inked in the previous period.

The homes’ combined asking price was $151 million, which works out to an average price of $6.6 million and a median of $5.5 million. The typical home spent nearly 750 days on the market and was discounted 16 percent from the original listing price.
