NEW MODERN MARVEL IN CLASSIC CHELSEA TOWNHOUSE w/ELEVATOR, ROOF POOL & TERRACES Here is the West Chelsea wonder for which you've been waiting -- a rare, artfully renovated, immensely livable, perfectly comfortable, stretch-out townhome across from the coveted Seminary grounds. Quietly nestled on the most treasured, manicured block in its prized neighborhood, 4 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom home smartly unfolds its ~4500 square feet onto four fabulous floors. The result is a loft-like, contemporary masterpiece in the form of a terrific townhouse. Come home to top tier, understated luxe living in every corner of this big home. Underfoot are beautiful hardwoods, above ceilings soar to 10-feet, and everywhere you look there is smart, elegant, understated design. Cascading from the elegant entry to the surprising roof's resistance pool, is the gorgeous stairway -- a designer's dream of form and function. The silent-running hydraulic system elevator runs throughout the residence, too -- both bringing you to every fine floor of this winsome residence. Minimalist design and wonderful light allow every floor to expand and breathe. The entry floor offers an ideal welcoming space -- a bonus office area, and a powder room. Up the stairs (or elevator) to the entertaining floor, you find the large living room -- a sizable space with a fireplace and views onto the treeline. The living room unfolds to the dining room -- an area perfect for an immense table -- surrounded by a most subtle and functional kitchen. Here, the highest quality design and attention to detail merge mindfully, integrating into a streamline culinary masterpiece. With appliances by Sub Zero (refrigerator), Miele (stove with outside ventilation), and Gaggenau (convection/air oven and steam oven), and with a big farm sink, automatic blinds, and wine cooler, this is a practical and handsome cook's space anchored by overscaled windows onto gardens. Two guest bedrooms with full baths are right upstairs -- bright and tranquil, like all of this feel-good home. The primary suite offers an entire floor for king-sized living and has two verdant exposures and a skylight. With big outfitted closets, a sitting area, office space, and with a remarkable primary bath suite (with dual sinks, soaking tub and immense double shower), this sweet suite is masterful in every way. The top floor offers a flexible bonus guest bedroom and bath, and is served by a thoughtful designer kitchenette with wet bar, and its piece de resistance: a big sun-filled terrace with grilling area -- an al fresco get away perfect for sunset parties and skyline gazing. The roof garden above has a special surprise -- yet another outdoor space and a private pool with resistance current. Throughout this house are discreet and thoughtful design choices: A top-of-the-line, integrated AV system, hidden speakers (that play music from behind walls), walls insulated with environmentally and child safe humidity barriers, sound-protected windows, recycled jeans for insulation, cork for sound protection, and two pairs of washer/dryers. Perfectly situated on its lovely, leafy block, this home enjoys all the benefits of its world-class location -- making life here easy, convenient and fun. A stone's throw from this prime West Chelsea address are many of NYC's most sought-after cultural, dining, shopping, entertainment, educational, and fitness destinations -- not to mention a plethora of easy transportation options. This modern marvel -- with its classic exterior -- is neighbors with the Highline, Chelsea Piers, Chelsea's best galleries, the Whitney Museum, Hudson River Park, Little Island, the Meatpacking District, and so much more. Here, in one of Manhattan's most prized residential neighborhoods -- your townhouse dream life begins.
