Description

Welcome to apartment #4E at 121 West 20th Street! This immaculate 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom duplex loft is the textbook definition of a downtown dream home. With soaring 15-foot ceilings, oversized windows, impeccable high-end renovations, and restored original details, every inch of this unique home has been thoughtfully and meticulously designed. Two sets of timeless French doors open up to Juliet balconies in the striking living room, while the adjacent gas fireplace serves as the focal point of this fabulous main space. Other notable features throughout the home include original cast iron columns, beautiful hardwood flooring, Jonathan Adler light fixtures, a Lutron lighting system on dimmers, and ample storage with numerous closets on both floors.

The pristine chef's kitchen was exquisitely renovated with white quartzite countertops, quartz backsplash, double height laminate cabinets, and stainless-steel appliances including a Viking range, microwave and dishwasher, Sub-Zero fridge, and a full-sized, conveniently stacked in-unit LG washer/dryer.

The connecting dining area accommodates an 8-person table while the primary bedroom can easily fit a California King bed, with both rooms sitting under beautifully designed recessed lighting. The custom millwork dressing room in the primary bedroom leads to a pristine, spa-like en suite bathroom with dual sinks, a large soaking tub, and a linen closet.

The spacious second floor has enough room for a lounge and an additional sleeping area that can easily accommodate a queen-sized bed as well as a separate space for a home office. This mezzanine level also contains ample storage with four individual closets.121 West 20th Street is a boutique condominium in Chelsea with the benefit of being steps away from the equally fabulous Flatiron District. Built in 1894 and converted to a condominium in 1991, this intimate 5-story building offers residents the convenience of a part-time doorman, bike room, low monthly common charges, and a newly remodeled roof deck.

Recently named the #1 neighborhood in New York and one of the top 10 neighborhoods in the world by Time Out's global publication, Chelsea's world class art galleries and thriving entertainment scene create a first-class union of uptown luxury and downtown glamour. In a neighborhood that's equal parts convenience and culture, this eclectic, vibrant, and internationally recognized area will continue to thrive and maintain its distinction as "the best of the best" for years to come.
