Architect-Designed Pre-War Loft with Low Monthlies — at the Nexus of Flatiron and Gramercy
From your private key-locked elevator entry, step into this expansive and quiet, full-floor loft at 39 East 20th Street, where pre-war character meets contemporary comfort, designed by architect West Chin. Bathed in natural light from 12 oversized windows and south, east and north exposures, this almost 2000sf, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home offers a flexible layout with an airy, open feel, wide-open southern views and a sense of privacy rare in the city.
The gracious layout spans the entire floor, creating a seamless flow between living, dining and entertaining spaces. The sizeable living room is always sun-blasted and provides an L-shape for a bright corner office that can be properly sectioned off if desired. The sprawling Boffi stainless-steel chef's kitchen anchors the home with both style and function; perfect for gatherings and everyday living. The top-of-the-line appliance package includes a Sub Zero refrigerator, Gaggenau gas stove, Miele oven and Bosch dishwasher. Cabinets and drawers are all soft-close. Flanked by a spacious dining room with exceptional storage, the easy flow of the home is undeniable.
The king-sized primary bedroom faces a quiet northern exposure, features beautiful architectural lighting overhead, a huge custom-built walk-in closet, and a sleek and luxurious en-suite, windowed bathroom with Bisazza glass tiled step-in shower, soaking tub, trough sink and plenty of elbow room. The original 3-bedroom layout can be viewed on the alternate floorplan provided. All 2.5 bathrooms offer Duravit, Kohler and Zuma fixtures, marble and stone. With a proper laundry room boasting full-sized stacked Miele washer and dryer, central AC, oak floors, custom window treatments, soaring 10'3" ceilings and overlooking Theodore Roosevelt National Park Service historic site, you will undoubtedly enjoy this timeless residence. (Bookshelves pictured will be removed.)
Built in 1908, this boutique, pre-war condominium with newly upgraded video security and a shared roof deck with iconic New York views offers professional building management and a superintendent. Live/work and pets are both allowed. This loft offers the ideal balance of space, light, and location, across the street from famed Gramercy Tavern and just moments from Gramercy Park, Union Square farmers market, Madison Square Park, Eataly and the best of Flatiron's dining, shopping and culture. The location, in Ladies' Mile Historic District, limits future construction in this architecturally-significant neighborhood. The block has recently been included in the 23rd Street Partnership BID and is beautifully cared for. Close to many transportation options including 4/5/6/N/R/Q/L trains, various bus lines and very easy access to all other NYC neighborhoods as well as FDR Drive and West Side Highway if you ever need an escape.
