An Architectural Masterpiece on Chelsea's Most Storied Block A rare opportunity to own a landmark townhouse on one of New York's most beautiful and sought-after streets - Cushman Row on the historic Seminary Block in West Chelsea. This 21-foot-wide, 6,000-square-foot masterpiece at 416 West 20th Street offers more than 1,400 square feet of private gardens and terraces, an extraordinary fusion of 19th-century grandeur and modern sophistication. Masterfully reimagined by Hernandez-Eli Architecture, this residence honors its architectural heritage while embracing the comforts of contemporary luxury living. Currently configured as a private three-floor Owner's Triplex with two full-floor, income-producing residences, the property offers both flexibility and elegance - a rare balance in Manhattan townhouse living. Historic Elegance, Modern Refinement Every detail has been meticulously restored and reimagined - from the seven wood-burning fireplaces to the handcrafted moldings and ironwork that define Cushman Row's iconic charm. Four distinct outdoor sanctuaries - including a lush south-facing garden, three private terraces, and a gracious front stoop - create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The Owner's Triplex Parlor Floor: A grand double-door entry leads into an airy expanse of soaring ceilings, dual fireplaces, and meticulously restored plasterwork. Sunlight filters through the adjoining sunroom, opening to a private terrace overlooking the garden. Designed for both formal and relaxed entertaining, this level offers an elegant canvas for art, music, and gatherings - a space to live beautifully among friends and family. Garden Level: A chef's kitchen with bespoke cabinetry and top-tier appliances opens seamlessly to a tiered, landscaped garden - an ideal setting for al fresco dining and intimate gatherings. The formal dining room, anchored by a stately fireplace, exudes character and warmth, creating an inviting atmosphere for entertaining. Primary Suite (Third Floor): A sophisticated full-floor sanctuary bathed in natural light, featuring a marble-clad spa bath, stately fireplace, and private library that opens onto a serene terrace overlooking the garden. A blend of elegance and tranquility - a true escape in the heart of the City. Cellar: Flexible space for a gym, screening room, or playroom with laundry and abundant storage. Income & Flexibility Fourth Floor: Renovated two-bedroom apartment with high ceilings, fireplace, and sunlight throughout. Fifth Floor: Another two-bedroom residence with skylights, fireplace, and a private terrace. Both units are presently income generating or can be seamlessly incorporated into the Owner's Triplex for a grand single-family home of exceptional scale and character. A Setting Steeped in Beauty and History Overlooking the Gothic spires and gardens of the General Theological Seminary, this home offers a rare blend of serenity and proximity to the city's most dynamic destinations - the High Line, Hudson River Park, Chelsea Market, the Meatpacking District, and world-class art galleries.
