Description

Welcome to Residence 2B at 252 West 20th Street, a charming and character-filled home nestled within a classic pre-war Chelsea co-op on one of the neighborhood’s most picturesque tree-lined blocks. This inviting apartment seamlessly blends timeless pre-war details with thoughtful modern updates. The warm and welcoming living space is anchored by exposed brick and a decorative fireplace, adding rich texture and authentic New York charm. Natural light filters in beautifully, highlighting the hardwood floors and well-proportioned layout that offers both comfortable daily living and effortless entertaining. Kitchen comes equipped with a dishwasher drawer and thoughtful storage. The newly renovated bathroom has been tastefully redesigned with clean, modern finishes that elevate the space while complementing the home’s original character. Ample storage and an intelligent flow complete this functional and stylish residence. 252 West 20th Street is a well-maintained elevator co-op featuring a convenient on-site superintendent (non–live-in), a laundry room, and a stunning roof deck with sweeping city views — the perfect place to unwind or entertain above the energy of Manhattan. Co-purchasing, guarantors, and pied-à-terres are case-by-case, with board approval. Cats are welcome; sorry, no dogs. Ideally positioned in the heart of Chelsea, moments from world-class dining, art galleries, shopping, transportation, and the High Line, Residence 2B offers classic pre-war charm, modern comfort, and an exceptional location — all in one compelling offering.
