Property Details
Description
Positioned among a row of nine townhouses on a beautiful tree-lined block in the Chelsea Historic District, 332 West 20th Street is a four-story plus finished cellar single-family home. Respecting its original Italianate style, this four-bedroom plus office residence has been transformed into a mint-condition Chelsea home by David Hottenroth of Hottenroth & Joseph Architects. Period details like marble mantles, crown moldings, casings, balusters, and the stair rail have been seamlessly restored. All floors have been replaced with new bleached wide planks, solid core doors installed throughout, and mechanical systems updated. The garden level is open and airy, featuring large rear casement doors that lead to a two-tiered bluestone garden. The custom kitchen, with a large center stone island and top-end appliances, flows into the dining area and a sunken living room. The irrigated garden features lush plantings, ipe fencing, and a natural gas DCS barbecue. The parlor level boasts over 11’ ceilings, a high gloss painted open stair, two marble mantles, and oversized windows. A luxurious powder room and dry bar with refrigeration and ice maker separate the front and rear parlor rooms for maximum privacy. The third level, which underwent the biggest transformation, features double-sided custom millwork entry closets, a south-facing bedroom overlooking the townhouse gardens, a slab marble bathroom with double vanity, large rain shower with brass fixtures, and radiant heated floors. Off the bathroom and hall is a home office or additional bedroom facing north. The top level is sun-flooded, featuring three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large skylight above the open stair, shedding light through the core of the home. The finished basement includes a temperature-controlled wine cellar, laundry, ample dry storage, a full house integrated alarm, and intercom systems. Located between Eighth and Ninth Avenues, 332 West 20th Street is in the heart of the Chelsea Seminary District, steps away from the trendy High Line, New York’s chic art gallery district, Chelsea Market, Chelsea Piers sports complex, Hudson River Park, and various upscale restaurants and shops.
