As Mae West might say, “He who hesitates is a damned fool.ˮ
An Upper West Side brownstone the Bushwick-born screen legend once called home is being offered for sale though Dan Geller and Eric Kleinstein of Keller Williams NYC.
The 4,300 s/f turn-of-the-century house that was converted into a six-unit building, offers a buyer the chance to create the house of their dreams on a tree-lined street.
Or, it could be an investment. The building has air rights that allow for additional buildable area 2,500sf.
Geller and Kleinstein have listed the house at $6,399,999.
Known for her bawdy double entendres, West made a name for herself in vaudeville and on the stage in New York before moving to Hollywood in the 1930s where she became one of the most iconic actresses off the century.
