Welcome to Residence 2D at 121 West 20th Street—an expansive and elegant two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex loft condo nestled in the heart of Chelsea. Brimming with authentic pre-war charm and soaring 18-foot ceilings, this stunning home offers a rare blend of dramatic scale, rich architectural detail, and timeless sophistication. The moment you step inside, you're greeted by an enormous great room with a wall of oversized north-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. Two sets of French doors open onto a Juliet balcony, creating an airy flow between indoors and out. The gracious living and dining area is designed for entertaining on a grand scale, while original cast-iron columns, a gas fireplace, and solid wood floors anchor the loft with warmth and character. The kitchen is both functional and generous in size, featuring floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and abundant storage. A conveniently located washer/dryer completes this efficient and perfectly integrated space. Downstairs, a generously proportioned bedroom with two large closets and an adjacent full bathroom—also serving as a powder room for guests—offers a comfortable and private retreat. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite spans the entire mezzanine level. This serene sanctuary easily accommodates a seating area or home office and boasts a custom-fitted walk-in closet large enough to satisfy even the most extensive wardrobes. The luxurious en-suite bath is finished in elegant marble and includes a double vanity, deep soaking tub, and separate rain shower. Additional highlights of this quintessential downtown loft include custom built-ins, recessed lighting, through-the-wall AC, and the character-rich detailing that defines classic Chelsea loft living. 121 West 20th Street is an intimate, five-story pre-war building originally constructed in 1875 and thoughtfully converted to condominiums in 1991. Residents enjoy part-time doorman/security coverage, a full-time superintendent, an incredible common roof deck, and low monthly charges. Perfectly situated in central Chelsea, just moments from Flatiron, Union Square, and the West Village, this location is surrounded by the city’s best dining, cultural institutions, art galleries, and parks—including The High Line and Madison Square Park. Easy access to nearly every major subway line ensures effortless commuting in any direction. Experience the best of authentic loft living in one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly special Chelsea home.
