Property Description for 551 West 21st Street, 4-A

Brazilian Modern Aesthetic - Custom Built-Ins Throughout - Pin-Drop Quiet Oasis - Flooded with Western Light
Introducing an unparalleled living experience at 551 W 21st Street, where luxury meets sophistication in this meticulously crafted 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom residence. Inspired by the works of Oscar Niemeyer, Lina Bo Bardi, and Jorge Almeida, no expense was spared in creating this aspirational "Brazilian Modern" designed oasis.

Residence 4A offers refined elegance where every detail has been thoughtfully considered. Throughout this 2000+ sqft home, floors have been expertly refinished, and the finest textiles were incorporated throughout the apartment, including top-tier vendors such as Raf Simons, Sandra Jordan, and Holland & Sherry. With extensive built-ins, custom furniture, and some of the most impressive millwork done today, 4A is a special property for the most discerning buyer. For a feel of how luxurious and extravagant the renovation is, the following details are just part of the larger story: Ikonni slatted walls (full height), walnut primary vanity, honed Ombra Nero stone-framed entryway, rift white oak nightstands, and Novona travertine in abundance.

Throughout the home, impeccable attention to detail reigns supreme. From the foyer window surround crafted from 2 cm Navona Travertine Honed to the custom stone hood in the kitchen, every element exudes unparalleled craftsmanship. Entertainment and convenience are at your fingertips with integrated AV and Lutron Switching throughout, seamlessly controlled by House Systems. Invisible speakers discreetly envelop the space, while Nest Thermostats ensure optimal comfort year-round.

Particularly noteworthy is the sound attenuation at 551 W21; despite the bustle of the City outside, once inside the apartment, a zen-like calm envelops those in residence. It is pin-drop quiet and flooded with western light.

The living and dining area boasts a ceiling with perimeter lighting, creating a warm ambiance for entertaining or relaxation. A custom Ikonni slatted wall graces several key areas, including the entry hallway, living room, banquette, and primary bedroom, exuding both style and functionality, while floating shelves with light channels in the living room add a touch of contemporary flair. The massive gourmet kitchen comes complete with a custom walnut island with stone countertops and backsplash throughout, with high-end appliances seamlessly integrating into the space, including a U-Line Beverage Center with a custom panel. Custom closets are located throughout the home and are outfitted by City Closets, offering ample storage solutions tailored to your needs. The office, laundry, entry, and primary bedroom closets are thoughtfully designed with integrated lighting, adjustable shelving, and angle pulls for effortless organization.

The primary suite is captivating, where you'll find a custom walnut vanity standing as a testament to exquisite design. Integrated draw pulls, custom stain color, and a Rubio Monocoat finish elevate its allure. The primary spa-like bath features luxurious Ombra Nero Honed stone, epitomizing opulence at every turn.

Nestled along the banks of the Hudson River, 551 West 21st Street stands as a beacon of modern luxury, promising an extraordinary living experience. Developed by Scott Resnick, a member of the respected multi-generational family of NYC builders, to the highest standards, this building is Foster + Partners' (Sir Norman Foster's) first US residential project and has instantly become an iconic presence for High Line adjacent living. Within its walls, residents are treated to an array of lavish amenities, including a secluded drive court/port cochere ensconced by a verdant 20-foot green wall, an impressive 34-foot double-height lobby adorned with a dazzling chandelier, and round-the-clock services provided by attentive doormen, concierges, porters, and valets. Additional offerings include a state-of-the-art fitness center, spa facilities for both men and women, a serene yoga room, a chic residents' lounge, a delightful children's playroom, convenient bike storage, and a dedicated service entrance.

Chelsea | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The row houses portray the world-class architecture of Greek Revival, Italianate and Georgian styles. The population is both ethnically and socially diverse, which is reflected in the restaurants and retail businesses in the neighborhood. 

Western Chelsea is the center of the NYC art world, where you will find more than 200 art galleries housed in rehabbed factories and warehouses, as well as in newly-constructed buildings.

While people of many different cultures call Chelsea home, it has been a mecca over the years for people in the LGBTQ community. One census reported that as many as 22% of its residents were gay couples. Eighth Avenue is a trendy area for LGBTQ-oriented dining and shopping. Although it no longer draws the LGBTQ population that it once did, Chelsea still has many popular alternative bars.  

Chelsea is primarily residential, consisting of a mixture of diverse complexes, low-rise apartment blocks, tenements, townhouses, renovated row houses, and luxury high-rises. 

Chelsea is an interesting and sought-after place to live, with unique clothing boutiques, restaurants, and delis representing cultures from around the world. In addition to its quirky establishments, Chelsea has fine dining restaurants and a vibrant, hip nightlife, which adds to its allure.

Chelsea is well-served by public transportation. At least six city bus routes traverse Chelsea. There are three NYC subway routes with stops on Seventh Avenue, three on Eighth Avenue, and two more on Sixth Avenue. The 34th Street - Hudson Yards Station opened in 2015 with its main entrance in Chelsea.
