31 W 16TH ST 1A

Every detail of this unique garden duplex in a pre-war Chelsea townhouse is handmade from the Schonbek crystal chandeliers to the 16' floor to ceiling granite fireplace. Masterful form, elegance, and definition portray the openness of this spectacular living space with 2 bedrooms and a den and 2.5 baths. 16' ceilings, a modern staircase, and 2 story high brilliantly sunny south facing windows with remote control custom blinds exemplifies the grand proportions throughout. The spectacular kitchen design will please every architect and the excellence of the detail will please every chef. The surprising subtle beauty of the custom stainless steal island offers the cosiness of counter seating. Every appliance and fixture is the best available including a built-in Gagganeau espresso center. The separate dining area is lit by another crystal Schonbek chandelier. The luxurious master suite is framed by french door leading to your private outdoor lounge with an easy maintenance irrigation system. The en suite bath is a work of art with a rain shower that glistens with handcrafted Italian tiles and a soaking tub. Off the living room and thru french doors you'll find the 2nd bedroom with a custom full bath and a built-in custom wardrobe and desk. All this plus an extra room for home office or nursery, washer/dryer, central air, completely wired for music and electronics throughout.
