Carriage House
April 13th, 2009
The Carriage House located in the heart of Chelsea at 159 West 24th Street. This beautiful building has been around since 1901 when it was first built as a stable. As times changed, the Carriage House changed to a garage that housed some of the first vehicles in the city. Now the Carriage House has been transformed into 24 beautiful lofts that offer a few parking spaces on the ground level to maintain the tradition of the building.
The lobby of the Carriage House brings the traditional feel of the exterior into the building. At the same time it showcases the modernization of the building with a virtual doorman. The modern amenities of the building also include a landscaped rooftop terrace complete with a gas barbecue for the residents use.
The lofts are designed in varying open or 1 bedroom styles to meet the demands of any person or small family. The penthouses include a terrace with their own private grilling states. One penthouse even offers a second terrace with a hot tub. The townhome designs offer a private garden off the back. The other loft designs are open or they have a study/bedroom with a walk in closet.
All lofts in the Carriage House were designed with the modern comforts of life. The kitchen is the center of each home with an integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and GE microwave. The custom wood and glass cabinets include a wine cooler and built in Wolf oven in most units. In addition the stone countertops include a Wolf 5 burner cook top in most of the units. The kitchen opens into a large living room with white oak flooring.
All living rooms are pre-wired for a wall mounted TV and audio throughout the room. The simplistic yet modern design carries into the bathrooms.
The elegant bathrooms feature a radiant heated floor with a soaking tub and separate shower. They also feature chrome fixtures, a custom vanity and marble countertops. The bathrooms also feature a wall mounted flat screen with a DVD player.
Each apartment in the Carriage House also features a washer and dryer. There is also ample closet space, even in the smallest loft, for storage. A tiled backsplash makes cleaning a breeze in every kitchen. To top it off every apatment features small details that brings out the old world elegance of the building.
The Carriage House still has 6 active listings. The listings vary from open lofts to 1 bedroom units. They are competitively priced starting at $690,000 for the open design loft. The most expensive units are even competitively priced at $1.35 million. The 6 listings at the Carriage House offer a variety of choices to meet the demands of even the most discerning individual.
