Description

This rare and utterly romantic penthouse flat is located in a former 19th Century bakery on arguably one of the prettiest tree-lined blocks in historic West Chelsea. A charming cobbled courtyard lined with hydrangeas leads to a secret back carriage house where you'll find this peaceful top floor residence echoing with bird song and featuring an enchanted private roof garden. Enter to a quaint sky-lit living room with original wood-beamed ceilings, exotic Australian eucalyptus hardwood floors, and tranquil treetop views from a wall of French windows. The sky-lit windowed kitchen is cleverly designed to maximize space and features custom maple cabinetry, slate floors, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including a Northland ProChef refrigerator, Amica oven, Bosch dishwasher, and a Vinotemp 26-bottle temperature controlled wine fridge. Off the living room, a hallway leads to a sunny south-facing bedroom with floor-to-ceiling closets, and a tastefully renovated bathroom. The magic continues upstairs, with a tall ship's ladder leading to a fully irrigated landscaped roof garden surrounded by trees for privacy and flourishing with colorful perennial flowers and wild herbs - all beckoning you to relax and escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Additional amenities include central air conditioning and an LG washer-dryer.

Built in 1850 as a foundry, Samuel Bath Thomas converted the ovens (now beneath the courtyard) for his eponymous English muffins. The residential coop, aptly christened "The Muffin House", was formed in 1982 with 11 unique and charm-filled residences.

The building is ideally situated mid-block across from the historic St. Peter's Episcopal Church, the Atlantic Theater, and just a quick stroll to the neighborhood's numerous cafes, restaurants, Chelsea Piers, and the Highline Park. Enjoy a unique and quiet lifestyle right in the heart of Chelsea's landmark district.
