$1.2M Morningside Contemporary Is Not for Fuddy-Duddys

At first glance, this four-bedroom contemporary in Morningside looks like a dull gray box with a front yard made of rocks. But a closer look reveals bright pops of color, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a leafy backyard and finishes designed to add warmth to the angular design. Features like bright red wall with giant braille dots and neon yellow accents on the stairs are definitely not going to appeal to everyone. This is not a place for traditional decor or antique furniture. It's full of surprises like a two-story stone fireplace in the living area, back-yard cabana and "beverage station." Last selling for $900,000 in 2012 and nestled amongst more modest homes in the $500,000 to $700,000 range, is this 3,587-square-foot house's asking price of $1,189,000 reasonable?
