Located on a quiet, tree-lined block in Central Chelsea right off 7th Avenue, 204 West 21st Street is a masterfully gut-renovated, 22.5-foot wide single-family townhouse offering a rare blend of timeless architecture and high-end contemporary living. Spanning four full floors with private outdoor areas, this home delivers refined elegance, privacy, and light in every corner.
The layout features 4 generously sized bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms, and a powder room, along with ample basement storage. The multi-year renovation paid meticulous attention to every detail—structural, mechanical, and aesthetic—to create a home that is both visually striking and designed for gracious daily living.
As you enter, you’re greeted by soaring ceilings, expansive rooms, and an abundance of natural light streaming through oversized, custom-designed windows. The interior is anchored by a dramatic, sculptural staircase wrapped in bronze and glass, a showpiece that connects all four floors with visual continuity and architectural flair.
Custom architectural lighting enhances each space, while integrated surround sound adds seamless audio throughout. Radiant heated flooring, motorized window treatments, and a 4-zone central HVAC system ensure comfort and convenience across every season.
The main level is ideal for entertaining, with a thoughtfully designed flow from the formal living area to the dining space and down to the ground level with a chef’s kitchen—outfitted with top-tier appliances and bespoke cabinetry. The kitchen opens directly to a beautifully landscaped south-facing garden, perfect for al fresco dining or a morning coffee in privacy. Above, a private terrace off the upper level offers another outdoor escape with open-sky views.
The home’s exterior has been just as carefully restored. The classic brick façade has been rebuilt from the ground up, and the gracious entry stairway has been fully reconstructed to honor the home’s original charm.
Situated just moments from the High Line, Chelsea Market, top-tier galleries, acclaimed dining, and multiple subway lines, 204 W 21st Street offers not only luxurious living but a location that connects you effortlessly to everything Downtown Manhattan has to offer.
