My husband and I found this fixer upper in Harlem, sold "as is," which in this case, was pretty atrocious. But we saw past the filth and peeling paint and realized the potential in the place right away. A corner unit on the third floor, it was flooded with light, and as a four-bedroom (converted to three) we would each have our own office. Before we even moved in, we spent three weeks scrubbing every surface, priming it, painting it bright white, and sanding down the floors—already a drastic improvement.
