A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 120 West 118th Street would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
About the building
120 West 118th Street began as a limestone row house designed and developed by Patrick H. Lynch around 1897. Its condominium conversion added a story and reorganized the interior into five homes, with initial closings in 2019 and DOB sign-off the following year. The historic street façade is paired with a substantially rebuilt rear elevation containing a steel-grid window wall and balconies.
The apartments include a garden duplex with a south-facing courtyard, middle-floor homes with open living areas, and two penthouse configurations with terraces. One upper home includes a full-floor roof deck; another has a raised terrace. The garden duplex extends to a lower recreation room and patio. North-facing street windows and south-facing rear glazing provide exposures on both sides of the townhouse.

What to know if you’re buying
This five-owner condominium combines a protected limestone façade with a modern rear window wall. Repairs to those two elevations involve different materials and access arrangements, while penthouse terraces sit above other homes; responsibility for glazing, terrace waterproofing and access is an important part of the ownership agreement.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
