Open House Weekend Report: February 8-10

Have plans for the weekend? You do now. Wherever you are—in the city, out on the East End, or catching some rays in South Florida—put a Corcoran open house on your calendar. Among this week’s picks, a stately corner townhouse in Harlem’s beloved Strivers Row area, a Williamsburg condo with an uncommon view, and a prewar charmer in Queens that’s just one stop from the site of the new Amazon HQ.

Manhattan

Friday, 5 p.m. to 6 p.m.

218 West 139th Street, Harlem

What’s here: Priced at $3,650,000, this 1893 corner townhouse in the history-rich Strivers Row section of Harlem features 2 units on four floors — an owner’s five-bed/three-bath triplex and a garden-level one-bed/one-bath apartment).
What we love: In engraved capital letters, a stone pillar outside this townhouse reads: “Private Drive: Walk Your Horses.” It’s one of many delightful details that illuminate the provenance of this glorious home — a corner masterpiece with south, north, and west exposures and private parking for as many as four vehicles, horse-drawn or otherwise.
The agent: Tay Tiwoni

Brooklyn

Sunday, 3 p.m. to 4 p.m.

144 North 8th Street, Apartment 10B, Williamsburg

What’s here: Priced at $1,899,000, this 1,200-square-foot condo features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a kitchen with polished concrete countertops and appliances by Sub-Zero and Bertazzoni. The asking price also includes a private parking spot.
What we love: Morning coffee on your private terrace, with a 10th-floor view over the Williamsburg rooftops toward Manhattan, sounds awfully good.
The agents: Brooke Safford and David Beegun

Queens

Sunday, 1 p.m. to 2 p.m.

What’s here: Priced at $645,000, this prewar co-op features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an open kitchen with appliances by Bosch, Blomberg, and Bertazzoni.
What we love: You’re just one F-train stop from the site of the new Amazon headquarters in Long Island City, but you can always skip the train and pedal to work: The building offers bike storage for an extra $20 per month.
The agents: Steven Gerber and Stan Gerasimczyk

The East End

Saturday, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

174 Wooley Street, Southampton

What’s here: Priced at $2,995,000, this 3,000-square-foot shingled traditional home, set on a third of an acre, features four bedrooms, four-and-a-half bathrooms, a wood-burning fireplace, a heated pool, and a pool house with a half-bath and an outdoor shower.
What we love: Built in 1925, this picture-perfect Hamptons compound is a relaxed 15-minutes to Southampton Village on foot, or 30 minutes to Little Plains Beach. (You’d spend longer than that looking for a parking spot.)
The agents: Pat Garrity

There’s also a full-house generator and hurricane impact windows.
What we love: Space, and lots of it: Despite its secure-compound privacy, this home has a wide-open attitude, with airy rooms and 14-foot ceilings, relaxed outdoor spaces, and prime frontage along the Intracoastal.
