Situated on a serene, tree-lined block in prime Chelsea, this exquisite two bedroom, one bath home represents the perfect marriage of classic, original architecture with contemporary touches befitting modern living. Located on the parlor floor, natural light floods throughout every room in this open layout, 1,100 sq.ft. residence. A complete renovation ensured that every detail was considered, with maximum functionality supporting stunning design.
A proper, handsome foyer with a large walk-in closet flows seamlessly to the open kitchen and living areas. The eat-in kitchen boasts morning light thanks to east-facing windows. Custom concealed cabinetry was designed to make the most of storage and square footage, and is beautifully complemented by a bespoke single slab Carrera Ora marble backsplash. A suite of top-of-the-line appliances by Miele, Liebherr and Wolf round out the offerings in this impeccably conceived kitchen.
Both bedrooms are substantial and feature south-facing views through large, CitiQuiet windows, as well as plenty of closet space. The elegant, windowed bathroom features Ann Sacks fixtures and tiles, a soaking tub and thoughtful storage options. Adding a sophisticated grandeur to the home is dark oak flooring and classic crown moldings.
With a live-in superintendent, this home sits at the heart of downtown Manhattan, with easy access to world-class shops and restaurants. In a lovely, iconic pre-war building in a fabulous neighborhood, this is an opportunity for the discerning buyer who appreciates attention to detail and quiet luxury.
