The charming four-story red brick home that houses the Upper Duplex, built in the 1920s, is on a tree-lined street at 312 W. 19th St. and was recently featured in the World of Interiors magazine. The furnished 1,750' duplex includes a full-floor living room with a fireplace and a renovated kitchen "inspired by a project French architect Jean Nouvel designed on Mercer Street" according to the owner, a peerless NYC-based veteran publicist. The open plan living space features iconic furniture and fabulous works created by legendary 20th century artists and a windowed kitchen overlooking one of Chelsea's most intimate blocks. The south-facing living room features a bucolic garden view.
The second floor offers two bedrooms - one with a fireplace - as well as two bathrooms that were rebuilt using Ann Sacks ceramic white subway tiles and Kohler bathroom fixtures.
Additional details include dark-stained hardwood oak floors and stairs, plus a shared foyer, front entrance and basement for storage.
Dogs are welcome, and art can be removed upon request. The owner occupies the bottom floors of the house and is open to flexible lease terms.

With a ton of things to do, places to see, and some of the most luxurious apartments in the city, Chelsea is a neighborhood that's always looking for the next cool thing to add to the vibe of the area.
Chelsea originally started out as farmland, specifically the farmland of British Major Thomas Clarke. Clarke named his estate "Chelsea" after a district in London and the name stuck ever since. In the early 1800's Clark's daughter sold the land to the city, and Chelsea became an industrial neighborhood.
With industrialization came working class immigrants, who worked the piers and helped build the row houses and low rise apartment complexes that are still around to this day.
