In the prestigious 1887 landmarked O’Neill building located on the corner of West 20th and 6th Avenue, this elegantly proportioned two bedroom, two bath condominium recalls its Beaux Arts past. 12’ ceilings and gorgeous moldings add to the grandeur, and the oversized windows (8’) let the sunlight pour in from the southern exposure.

In the prestigious 1887 landmarked O’Neill building located on the corner of West 20th and 6th Avenue, this elegantly proportioned two bedroom, two bath condominium recalls its Beaux Arts past. 12’ ceilings and gorgeous moldings add to the grandeur, and the oversized windows (8’) let the sunlight pour in from the southern exposure. The apartment is pin-drop quiet, and offers more storage than you’ll know what to do with. The abundant storage areas include a stand-up attic space (approximately 7′ × 6′) above the oversize walk-in master bedroom closet as well as concealed storage spaces throughout. The spacious, eat-in kitchen, with custom cabinets, and plenty of counter space, will make you want to put on your apron and start cooking.

The beautiful period details, lovingly restored, allow you the feel of townhouse sophistication. Antique french doors to the 2nd bedroom/library and master bedroom quarters, as well as an antique stained glass conservatory door to the bedroom and the decorative fireplace make this a unique and distinguished space. Yes there is a 24hour attended lobby and concierge. There is a planted roof deck above, providing sound insulation as well as professional soundproofing in the walls to the only adjacent neighbor which will make this your oasis of calm and quiet, while situated right in the middle of everything, equal distance from the Hudson River and Union Square. Near galleries, performance spaces, Eataly, and Chelsea restaurants and shops.
