Description

Perfectly positioned in between a row of nine townhouses and located on a beautiful tree-lined, townhouse block in the Chelsea Historic District sits 332 West 20th Street, a four-story plus finished cellar single-family home. With homage paid to the original Italianate style, a contemporary finish has transformed this five-bedroom plus office home into a mint-condition Chelsea home. 332 West 20th Street has been reimagined and thoughtfully laid out by David Hottenroth of Hottenroth & Joseph Architects. Period details throughout have been seamlessly restored which include marble mantles, crown moldings, casings, balusters and the stair rail. While, all floors have been replaced by new bleached wide planks, solid core doors installed throughout and reappointed mechanical systems. The garden level is open and airy given the large rear casement doors that flow directly to the two-tiered bluestone garden. The custom kitchen with a large center stone island and top-end appliance package flows into the dining and a sunken living room. The manicured and irrigated garden features lush plantings, ipe fencing, and a natural gas DCS barbecue. The parlor level is gracious and cheerful with over 11’ ceilings, a high gloss painted open stair, two marble mantles and oversized windows front and back. A luxurious powder room and dry-bar with refrigeration and ice maker flank the core which separates the front and rear parlor room for maximum privacy. The third level which underwent the biggest transformation, features double-sided custom millwork entry closets, a south-facing sleeping quarters overlooking the townhouse gardens, a beautifully appointed 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 over the townhouse-lined street. The top level is sun flooded and features three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a large skylight above the open stair which sheds light through the core of the home. The finished basement is outfitted with a separately temperature-controlled wine cellar, laundry, ample dry storage, a full house 2N integrated alarm and an intercom system. Located between Eighth and Ninth Avenues, 332 West 20th Street sits in the heart of the famed Chelsea Seminary District, where you are steps away from the trendy High Line and New York’s chic art gallery district. Also nearby are the Chelsea Market, the Chelsea Piers sports complex, the new Hudson River Park, and a wide variety of upscale restaurants and shops.
