Property Details
Description
Residence 2D at 121 West 20th Street is a striking two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex loft that captures the essence of classic Chelsea living. Set within a storied pre-war condominium, this home pairs dramatic volume with refined finishes, offering an impressive sense of scale rarely found in today's market. With ceilings rising to approximately 15 feet and beautifully preserved architectural elements throughout, the residence feels both grand and deeply inviting.
The main level opens into a spectacular great room anchored by oversized north-facing windows that bathe the space in soft, consistent light throughout the day. French doors lead to a charming Juliet balcony, subtly extending the living space outdoors. Designed with entertaining in mind, the expansive living and dining area easily accommodates gatherings large and small, while original cast-iron columns, a gas fireplace, and rich hardwood floors lend texture, warmth, and unmistakable loft character.
The kitchen is thoughtfully proportioned and well-equipped, featuring extensive custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and excellent storage. A discreetly placed washer and dryer enhance everyday convenience without disrupting the clean aesthetic of the space.
On the lower level, a spacious secondary bedroom offers a quiet retreat with two generous closets and immediate access to a full bathroom that also functions seamlessly as a guest powder room.
Above, the mezzanine level is dedicated entirely to the primary suite-a private, loft-like haven overlooking the living space below. There is ample room for a seating area or home office, complemented by an oversized, custom walk-in closet. The en-suite bathroom is finished in marble and outfitted with a double vanity, a soaking tub, and a separate rain shower, creating a spa-like atmosphere at home.
Additional features include custom built-ins, recessed lighting, through-the-wall air conditioning, and the authentic details that define true downtown loft living.
Built in 1875 and converted to condominiums in 1991, 121 West 20th Street is a boutique, five-story pre-war building offering part-time doorman/security service, a full-time superintendent, a beautifully appointed common roof deck, and notably low monthly charges.
Located in the heart of Chelsea, moments from Flatiron, Union Square, and the West Village, this home is surrounded by acclaimed restaurants, galleries, cultural landmarks, and green spaces such as the High Line and Madison Square Park. Multiple subway lines nearby provide effortless access to the rest of Manhattan.
This is an exceptional opportunity to own a sophisticated and character-rich loft in one of the city's most dynamic neighborhoods.
