...Welcome to the Penthouse at 120 West 20th Street—a stunning 2-bedroom (convertible 3-bedroom), 2-bathroom loft with a private roof deck, located in an intimate building in the heart of Chelsea.

A private keyed elevator opens directly into a sprawling great room with 9-foot ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors. The living area is bathed in natural light from three massive floor-to-ceiling windows. Custom built-ins and elegant millwork add warmth and depth to the space. Currently configured as an expansive living area with an office nook, the layout easily allows for conversion into a true, windowed third bedroom or a separate den/home office.

The open floor plan flows seamlessly into the dining area, which comfortably accommodates 10 or more guests and offers space for additional furniture. A wood-burning brick fireplace serves as the perfect centerpiece.

The large, open kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring creamy white wood cabinetry with extensive storage, including two pantry closets. Grey stone countertops and a marble backsplash perfectly complement the cabinetry. A suite of stainless steel appliances includes a wine fridge and a sleek, vented floating exhaust hood.

Located on the south side of the home, the sleeping quarters offer the ideal separation between living and entertaining spaces. The primary suite includes a spacious bedroom, a luxurious dressing room, and an en-suite bathroom. The bedroom comfortably fits a king-sized bed and additional furnishings and features custom built-ins and four oversized windows with dual exposures. The walk-in dressing room is large enough to satisfy any fashion enthusiast’s wardrobe needs. The en-suite bathroom boasts a dual vanity, glass-enclosed shower, and soaking tub.

The secondary bedroom, spanning 23 feet in length, is perfect as a children’s room, guest room, or home office, and includes a generous closet. A second full bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower is conveniently located just outside, along with a hallway lined with custom storage.

Up the designer spiral staircase, you’ll find a cozy built-in reading nook and access to your private rooftop oasis. Enjoy multiple spaces to dine and lounge while taking in iconic skyline views and lush landscaping. Composite decking and industrial railings provide a durable, low-maintenance outdoor retreat. As the only residence with roof access, this penthouse offers truly private outdoor living—an extraordinary luxury in NYC.

Additional highlights include central A/C, an in-unit washer and dryer, an integrated sound system (including on the roof deck), recessed lighting, a Lutron lighting system, remote-controlled custom shades, extensive built-in storage, and exposed brick walls.

120 West 20th Street is an intimate 7-unit co-op located between 6th and 7th Avenues in the heart of Chelsea. Building amenities include a video intercom system, keyed elevator access to each unit, and additional basement storage. Situated near multiple subways, bus lines, garages, and Citibike, this home is perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of Chelsea and Flatiron’s dining, shopping, and culture.
