$22,000,000 NYC Townhouse Worth it? | NYC APARTMENT TOUR

[@nicksincredibleopinion]

He does a good job trying to sell it, but let's be honest; it's a beautiful house with a lot of tacky design features. Neon peace sign, leather floors(?!), alligator skin walls, and those glass bricks straight out of 1985! This house would need a lot of work for a normal person to live in.

[@AtlantaHomesforSale]

Without looking at comps, unable to say if it is worth $22M but without a doubt, this 7400 sq ft townhome is a masterpiece. There is so much to love but what I love most are the details throughout, the interior design and the backyard outdoor space with the water feature. Thanks for taking us on this tour.

Your Thai fan here. The woodwork mentioned is made out of carved wood and the glittering stuff is the inside of seashells. It depicts some tropical flowers and plants, the animals are Thai cows. 😊

[@remckee3]

I've never commented on one of these videos until now. That townhouse is the most horrifically decorated home I've ever seen. It should be an embarrassment to the current owner.

[@Higherseeker]

A lot of cash thrown about w/o any theme or cohesiveness whatsoever. Expensive tackiness. (imho)

[@Tesla.G.78]

My favorite part was you wanting to close the door quickly because the A/C was on. It’s the genuine consideration for a millionaires electric bill that comes from a proper upbringing for me ☺️

[@wolf3522]

[@danforward3913]

Townhouses in NYC have the potential to be so unique, and this one is no exception. So much to love and so much to distinguish this place from other homes!

[@s-p-tmusic8190]

Ikr if I had the money I would buy it for sure!!

[@MrNotronnie]

20 ft isn't wide for 22m. Looks dark and that garden is shocking. That fountain is hiding outside noise. Count the Windows, all those mirrors are because of the lack of light. Something is wrong with this place.

[@myjeanification]

5 floors no elevator , that is a huge deal breaker for many people

[@scottwilliams5705]

I completely agree, for 22 million I'd want 25 feet wide. Plus I'd prefer the west side, preferably the West Villag.

[@dugebuwembo]

Dark and dingy right, how this costing $20M...😅🤷🏿‍♂️

[@cindykerr3911]

Exactly. Nobody wants to walk all those stairs. That's how Ivanka's mother died, from srairs.

[@tahirisaid2693]

This is the most beautiful apartment. I love the way Erik goes about his job. But the truth is; without making good investments, no one can ascertain the kind of money required to own such properties. I am retiring next yr at 55 with 3 houses paid off worth 40.5 million. I realized that the secret to making a million is making better investments.

[@nameABCD1994]

I agree with you on the backgarden, superb stuff. But the alligator skin wall and the out of place LEDs kinda set off the mood for me. Great tour, I’m your new fan!!

[@charissaclemetson]

That backyard is everything. I love that the entire space was designed around that tree. Beautiful!

[@DavidDatura]

You have to be young or very fit to live in a 5 story townhouse with no elevator! It is there, but I still wish this house retained more of its original character.

[@tiwantiwaabibiman2603]

And not pregnant or not have a cast on a leg/foot, or other injury or bad illness at any age. I agree! Whoever lives there made way too many modern and over the top ornamental changes that replaced/ignored the historical features.

[@balazsvarga8355]

nice space but the interior design is to much. I'm not saying that the majority of the rooms aren't nice but the way it is put together seems a little chaotic.

[@penguinswithwifi]

I’m imagining youtuber Cash Jordan touring this house and the funny comments he’d be making 😂

[@zacfirst]

I can’t help thinking this is a billionaires sons house or bachelor pad that recently got in a relationship which would explain the Barbie artwork 😭😂

[@itsfelipesanches]

I honestly never had the opportunity (yet), to look inside an entire Townhouse in NYC, but this one, OMG, it is much more than I could ever imagined what might be. This place is gorgeous and just amazing! Beautiful...just beautiful.

[@nataliaalfonso2662]

Most are much nicer.

[@joshbillion6874]

Americans don't have any idea what a $22M looks like. I felt like it's a tiny luxury home. Come to Italy, Spain, France etc and see what $22M can get you.

[@CosmicGoat-d3o]

They print the money so they don't have much idea.

[@markbigbadbear]

Thanks for another great house tour, Erik! It's a gorgeous house. Wood paneling needs to make a comeback! The whole place feels cozy and homey. Loved the bathroom with the green tile bath. One thing I expected and missed was an elevator. For 22 milion in a 5 story house I'd have liked one to be there. For accessibility and to accomodate my general laziness hahaha.

[@muhammadmahendra2242]

This house screams uniqueness, I love the fact that every floor and each room has its own theme and design. It brings life to the property, especially the backyard garden, and I love how the master bedroom is covered in alligator skin. Never thought I would see something like that

[@jenniferlynn3537]

I wonder how they hide the seams 🤔

[@pablolemoko3596]

This is a great house, I viewed it quite a while ago, still has not sold (I think it's $2-3m over, there are great deals in UES at the moment so the price will need to shift to sell, I feel). Finishing is bespoke and very high quality - but expensive to maintain (e.g. the leather floors). One issue is the beautiful but isolated dining room. The pantry to the left has no cooking appliances, so you have to drag the food from the kitchen below, up the stairs and through the sitting room. There's no dumb waiter.

[@findahomenyc]

Good point about the kitchen. While obviously a stunning home and a dream to live in, the layout feels a bit disjointed. Maybe because of where utilities are located and issues with the time necessary to obtain permits. I wonder how many of those walls are load-bearing..🪓🪓😅

[@pablolemoko3596]

@@findahomenyc Also, the greatest sin: 5 floors and no elevator. That's a problem of being 20 ft wide, I think here.

[@findahomenyc]

Great point! Without knowing property records I would assume it’s probably a converted multi-family. Only buildings over 6 stories need an elevator so I imagine was not in the original design I imagine the permits are the biggest issue once again with the elevator. Would take forever and would probably not get you the payout to cover the carrying costs you need to shell out while waiting on approvals.

[@travelone753]

The townhouse is monumental and palatial. The exterior and interior present modern, yet have classic traditional elements in the design throughout. The woodwork/stonework are elegant with unmatched craftmanship. The 7 fireplaces shown were just brilliant and add that romantic warm feeling that is unique to fireplaces they are EVERYTHING! Favorite spaces are: the basement, primary bedroom owners wing closet and bathroom the glass blocks in the shower were radiant! the 4th floor media room. So many nooks to hide away to unwind and refresh, with posh....Thanks Erik for a tour of imperial lux!!!,,,

[@dugebuwembo]

Ugliest thing I have ever seen.

[@Daveyengland]

Is that major water damage in the basement? Also, is that basement prone to flooding?

[@bananamarilyn]

That green tiled tub is beautiful! So are the windows placed inside the closets, fantastic.

[@constancevigilance8696]

I don't know why so many people are complaining. I like such a flat much more than those appartements in the skyscrapers. Its much more comfortable.

[@garretoien]

Worth it, for sure. A lot of the expensive NYC apartments/condos shown on other video tours have 0 character. This one has lots. I love it.

[@LosingNemo]

Nice to see Erik on top form, flowing, informative commentary, great enthusiasm and a well planned tour of an amazing property.

[@dawstu1]

The pink and purple hues make it a place that belongs to the 90s. Could’ve been such a nice interior.

[@channingparker9431]

To me, it's worth it. I haven't seen a tour that suits my wants and needs like this townhouse has.

[@josetheman239]

He is back ladies and gentlemen. The king of house tours 👌

[@jerrievans3997]

It's nice but they could have made the owner's bathroom bigger by taking up the space equivalent to the 2nd wing of the closet. Bathrooms, kitchens and outdoor spaces have a huge impact on sales.

[@memberofthetribe1]

God help us....Eric Conover is one of the sexiest men walking New York. The house was nice too. (kidding). The ONLY thing that is wrong with this house is that there is no elevator. People seem to forget that a lot of people take care of their elders, and would love to live in a space like this, but won't because of their older family members that might have limitations . Other than that, it epitomizes that type of townhouse one thinks about when one hears New York's upper east side. Well Done.

[@avetimedia]

Thanks for helping advertise my home! Hope it sells soon 😀

My favorite apartment I’ve seen in NYC so far. Beautiful

[@moniquedeitz4356]

Erik, good to see you on KZbin again! And what a beautiful house you're showing. It has a warm, luxurious, relaxing atmosphere. That green-tiled bathtub is terrific. I'd definitely feel right at home there and wouldn't have any hesitation at putting $22 million on the table for a home in the Upper East Side. Thanks for showing it. The townhouse and its lovely woodwork reminds me of The Owlwood Estate in Holmby Hills that you toured in December 2019. Everyone should see that episode: "Touring A Massive $115 Million California MEGA MANSION - Erik Conover"--more than worth the time.

[@adri_rck]

Very masculine eccentric design for this town house

[@lottrobinson87]

I know the location is a justification for the price, but the physical value of this condo is not anywhere near the asking price. Imagine the home you could build for 22 million dollars almost anywhere else.

[@sweet_bruiser5144]

The glass walls... no doubt I'd run into them and break my face. But the apartment itself is beautiful!

[@aprilsunshine2550]

Beautiful place… whoever owns this must be into fashion 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@snacker66]

Terrible taste in art though.

[@emmettdaniels9151]

I think they should put the kitchen where the dining room is, the kitchen is really where you spend you time

[@scottboa2738]

It's worth the $22,000,000 price tag, provided that the furniture comes included.

[@hoosierladyus48]

I'm not really into modern, but something about this house I like. Maybe it's all the wood mixed in.

[@Alfredul03]

This apartment would be ideal for a large family. There are very dark things that I don't like at all, I'm more into dawn tones, light ones that give life to the home that I am going to do. It has some salvageable things like the bedrooms and their respective bathrooms. In conclusion, that apartment would not be in the plans to invest $22 million dollars and not because it's worth it, but it's a matter of interior design that doesn't go with me. IMHO!

[@J.Abadia]

Shoutout for the Huel advertisement, I've been having it for over 5 years and I feel great, it saves money, but more importantly is the convenience of knowing that I'm getting everything my body needs without the hassle of having to go grocery shopping, planning and cooking.

[@EGC444]

This is a dream of a house to live in not only the city it’s in and it’s surrounding but it’s beautiful design and look

[@yoona3573]

Hi Erik, please upload videos regularly.. For me, the way you do your house tour is much better than the other Real Estate vloggers.

[@sebastianstyles9750]

I don’t think it’s worth $22million, you’re basically paying millions for random objects, artwork, textures that a random person has picked out. It almost feels unfair that you would have to be stuck with all that extra stuff that looks like it should be sold off in a garage sale. That money could of been spent refining the space such as the “laundry room” in the basement that looks like American horror story. Despite all the unnecessary styling and clutter, the home has a beautiful charm to it. Such a shame on the interior design.

[@adastra79]

I don’t know about the house, but your suit is definitely a million dollar suit! Go, Erik!

[@simongamez]

Those shots of Central Park at the begining are amazing, it shows how big it is, specially the lake. The townhouse has lots of potential, I would turn that beautiful atrium into a kitchen or living room. The rest of the apartment except for the backyard, is tacky and outdated... the use of leather is stupid and unnecessary and the Barbie artwork... I don't know... I full renovation would bring life to it.

[@Smallsappypony]

and of course anytime you leave the original historic elements in a house you’re winning. I love history so the original stonework is so cool

[@garywalden]

Leather Floors. I’m blown away

[@kamanama3671]

I believe the first floor is too claustrophobic for being open concept. Can you try to cram so much and you’re going to have to sacrifice some thing. The wine cellar shelving is all wrong. But Caesars tiled head is beautiful.

[@albyao]

[@noahmcgriff511]

[@clintlewis1715]

You're lucky enough to get a property with an outdoor green space in NYC, then completely cover it with decking and stone to make the outdoor space look like an indoor space. At least they didn't remove the tree. But still, they should have done some kind of landscaping there and made it a nice private green space.

[@avetemorituri]

Everything is super-expensive, I can see that. That said, the interior design is extremely tacky and vulgar. Chanel cushions? Picture of Barbie? Floor and walls covered in leather? Fireplace in a closet? I could go on.

[@teishahowlett6342]

I really do think it’s Worth it..From the location, six or five floors, again location and I love ❤️ that DVD private Room..Because I personally have a Bunch of DVDs and a collection of CDs..Beautiful Townhouse 🏡..

[@fidel2xl]

Nicely renovated townhouse...but 20 feet wide is too narrow even for an Upper East Side townhome, and the lack of an elevator makes this one unappealing @ $22 Million. And obviously, this home is renovated as a multi-family home in which the owner might occupy the first 2 or 3 floors, and rent out the remaining floors as separate units, so this one might be worth closer to around $14 Million.

[@EluciveArtist]

This house reminds me of all of those 70/80’s movie apartments and homes. Whoever had this house designed threw all of their favorite movie rooms into one house

[@sveawick6870]

For 22 million, the lack of natural light is a bit surprising. I think this looks more like a bachelor pad because of this. The kitchen is especially dark.

[@MrJhchrist]

14:56 Thats an opium pipe and paraphernalia, interesting decor choice

[@lilee45]

What’s up with the entry hallway. The floor plan shows spaces to the left of the hallway, but no tour of the area.

[@udaykiranneelayadora2669]

music takes it a bit up top notch. Got retro futuristic vibes like in 'cowboy bebop'

[@CuriousEarthMan]

Thanks for the tour. Despite trying to create the notion that 20 feet is very wide, I'm reminded that most lots in the Cit are 25 wide. Sadly, it sounds like salesman's bologna. It seems in the ballpark for value, so yes, probably worth $22 million to someone. For my $22 million, I like things more traditional, original style to the era of construction, preferring Beaux Arts to Neo Georgian. Thanks again!
