The renovated kitchen offers a contemporary design with a large pass through opening. There are stone countertops as well as stainless steel appliances.  An LG all-in-one washer/dryer is an added convenience.  The garden apartment at 450 West 20th Street was first listed in April 2022.  Within a week, the property went to contract.  Five weeks after it hit the market, the property sold at the ask of $1.150 Million.  The listing was represented by the Tyler Whitman team at Triplemint.
