177 9th Ave #2A, New York, NY 10011

An exceptional opportunity presents itself to acquire a sprawling residence situated on the grounds of the General Theological Seminary. Overlooking "The Close" - a landmarked garden adorned with century-old trees and stunning neo-gothic architecture - this picturesque oasis is truly one of a kind. This sophisticated and timeless 4 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom home sits on the entirety of the western edge of The Chelsea Enclave, offering South, West, and North exposures, providing a truly unique haven in the heart of New York City's bustling West Chelsea. Upon entering, the grand windowed foyer leads to a well-appointed, eat-in kitchen with black absolute granite countertops, white oak cabinetry, Bosh Dishwasher, 36" Wolf oven with a Miele stainless steel fully vented hood, Sub-zero 36" refrigerator, and Sub-Zero stainless steel 46-bottle wine cooler with dual temperature control. The formal dining room and expansive living room showcase floor-to-ceiling windows, framing the picturesque surroundings. Spanning an approximate 950 SF alone, this living area is an entertainer's dream. Off of the kitchen, there is a 133 SF private terrace affording additional views of The Close. A den, or additional living room, separates the dining room, living room, and kitchen, from the bedrooms and laundry room. All four bedrooms, featuring en-suite marble baths, face South, with the primary bedroom featuring its own foyer, a corner nook with floor-to-ceiling windows, and an en-suite bathroom finished with Botticino Fiorio marble, a radiant heated floor, and a Kohler Tea-for-Two bath. The Enclave is truly a unique building, operating as a condop (a coop with condominium rules). The owners benefit from exclusive amenities, including direct access to a secluded, block-long, European-style secret garden that connects the gothic buildings of Chelsea’s General Theological Seminary and the Enclave, a 24-hour doorman, attached garage, live-in resident manager, fitness center, childrens playroom, valet package room, bike room, and a manicured roof deck. This property is a rare and exceptional opportunity to own a piece of history, a magnificent home, and a private oasis in one of the most desirable locations in New York City.
