Despite being in one of New York City’s most vibrant downtown neighborhoods, this street-level co-op at 450 West 20th Street has all the charm of a village cottage, pretty back garden included. Asking $1,250,000, the one-bedroom flat anchors a West Chelsea townhouse, with the verdant Seminary and its gardens just across the street.
Enter through a private doorway into a separate entry hall; a railroad layout is simple but convenient: In the main central space, the kitchen and dining area open onto a disarmingly cozy living room, framed by a decorative fireplace and a bay window seat overlooking the private back patio.
The compact kitchen offers full-sized appliances, including a dishwasher, framed by bright pop-art wallpaper. There’s also a washer and dryer in the apartment, tucked into a living room laundry closet. With spring in full bloom, it’s easy to appreciate the south-facing bluestone patio off the living room, complete with planters.
The home’s bedroom is at the front. New custom closets keep things organized. The apartment’s updated bathroom has a marble-topped vanity and decorative wall tile.
Located on a row of stately brick townhouses, the entrance is buffered from the street by a planted front garden and wrought-iron gate. A Ring doorbell system adds a layer of security.
