A rare offer in central Chelsea nearby the border of the West Village, this grand 2-bedroom (convertible 3-bedroom), 1-bathroom floor-through co-op apartment provides the homeowner with every convenience of modern living while preserving the prewar characteristics that are inherent to the property. Graced with 10 foot ceilings and loads of impeccably intact 1880's architectural details, 136 West 16th Street, 4W, known as an Edwardian Five layout, features a large, square living room with 2 over-sized north-facing windows with original wood shutters, as well as a beautifully detailed and intricately carved decorative fireplace. The spacious dining room, with a second decorative fireplace, is located next to the recently renovated chef's kitchen with all the bells and whistles including a vented Viking range, Liebherr fridge/freezer, Bosch dishwasher and vented washer/dryer. There are two comfortable bedrooms, one with original carved wood and beveled-glass pocket doors that can also serve as a den or home office. Between the two bedrooms and off the hallway is a recently renovated subway-tiled bathroom with penny floor tiles and Perrin and Rowe fixtures. Beautiful hardwood parquet floors with a mahogany inlay border design, and central air complete the package. It is easily convertible to a 3-bedroom (see alternate floor plan). Built in 1883 and converted in 1984, 136 West 16th Street, with 2 units per floor, is a bit of Paris in New York! With its Parisian-styled entry and lobby making the three flight walk up stylish, it includes caged locker storage (a 7' x 6' caged locker trades with the apt.), bike and stroller storage, and a live-in super. Pet friendly, the co-op allows guarantors, co-purchasing, and pied-a-Terre buyers. It is nearby everything central Chelsea and the West Village have to offer, including major subway and bus lines, top fitness clubs, the best food shopping in New York, including the Union Square Farmers Market, and many other wonderful shopping and dining options.
