坐落於切爾西最迷人的街區之一，Donac以沉靜而不容忽視的氣勢巍然聳立，堪稱這片社區早期先驅願景難得留存的見證。這座優雅的24英尺寬新殖民式地標建築於1898年構思，由享譽盛名的大宅建築師 C. P. H. Gilbert 設計；其作品包括 Warburg Mansion（現為猶太博物館）、Cartier Building，以及上東城的 Woolworth Mansions。建築由 Angelica Faber 委託興建；她是 Don Alonso Cushman 之女，而 Cushman 正是塑造切爾西大部分建築基因的開發商。

其標誌性的弧形立面，是曼哈頓聯排住宅設計中罕見的雕塑性構思，其起源可追溯至19世紀30年代 Cushman 與鄰居 Clement Clarke Moore 達成的一項君子協議。兩人對美感與比例的共同堅持，促成了切爾西標誌性的花園式退縮布局，而這份傳承至今仍清晰可見。

經歷一絲不苟、從地基開始的全面修復後，這座6,545平方英尺、五層樓高的歷史級瑰寶重新展現其完整風華。外觀的淺黃磚砌體、手工雕刻飾邊、弧形凸窗與鍛鐵細節，致敬建築19世紀的歷史底蘊；室內則巧妙融合保存完好的工藝與高雅現代奢華。

建築以空置狀態交付，共設五套採光充沛的住宅，其中三套配有可使用的壁爐；每戶皆擁有寬敞窗戶、修復後的木作，以及綠意盎然的切爾西景觀。貫穿整層的格局舒展流暢，實木地板、訂製門窗套、拱形壁龕與精緻線板，彰顯住宅的工藝根源。

建築頂層為一套氣勢非凡的三臥室、兩浴室複式頂層公寓，以雕塑般的空間尺度為特色，並可直接通往寬闊的屋頂露台，飽覽全景城市景致。其下設有兩套精緻的兩臥室、 one浴室貫穿整層住宅，每戶皆享有充沛自然光線與經過悉心考量的細節。

客廳層另設一套兩臥室、 one浴室貫穿整層住宅，可直接通往寧靜的私人庭院，成為生活空間難得的戶外延伸。地窖層另有一套迷人的開放式單間公寓，適合作為客房、員工住所、創意工作空間或額外收益來源，為整體物業錦上添花。

全屋配備最先進的系統、更新後的照明與嶄新的飾面，與保存完好的原始細節無縫融合，營造出兼具永恆氣質與煥新風貌的室內空間。廚房精心配置頂級家電、充裕收納空間與寬敞工作檯面；浴室則以落地至頂的大理石包覆，宛如水療般的私享 retreat。

Donac 正對歷史悠久的 General Theological Seminary，四周綠樹成蔭，地理位置得天獨厚，在曼哈頓心臟地帶營造出難得一見的歐洲小 enclave 氛圍。其親密而僅有五戶住宅的規模，確保高度私密性；同時，無論作為長期投資、精品住宅改造項目、居住兼收益型住宅，或獨一無二的私人宅邸，其高度可塑性都提供了同類歷史物業鮮少具備的靈活選擇。

Donac 經悉心修復，建築格局完整保存，並擁有無可複製的歷史傳承，堪稱切爾西可世代傳承的珍貴資產，靜候下一位守護者。

Rising with quiet authority along one of Chelsea's most enchanting blocks, the Donac stands as a rare surviving expression of the neighborhood's earliest visionaries. Conceived in 1898 by celebrated mansion architect C. P. H. Gilbert, whose body of work includes the Warburg Mansion (now the Jewish Museum), the Cartier Building, and the Upper East Side's Woolworth Mansions, this graceful, 24-foot-wide Neo-Colonial landmark was commissioned by Angelica Faber, daughter of Don Alonso Cushman, the developer who shaped much of Chelsea's architectural DNA.

Its signature curved facade, a rare sculptural gesture in Manhattan townhouse design, traces its origins to an 1830s gentleman's agreement between Cushman and his neighbor Clement Clarke Moore. Their shared commitment to beauty and proportion gave rise to Chelsea's iconic garden setbacks, a legacy still legible today.

Following a meticulous, ground-up restoration, this 6,545-square-foot, five-story historic trophy reemerges in full splendor. The exterior's buff-brick masonry, hand-carved trim, bowed bay windows, and wrought-iron detailing honor the building's 19th-century heritage, while the interiors thoughtfully fuse preserved craftsmanship with elevated modern luxury.

Delivered vacant, the building comprises five luminous residences, three with working fireplaces, all featuring generous windows, restored millwork, and leafy Chelsea views. Floor-through layouts unfold with ease, while hardwood floors, custom casings, arched niches, and refined moldings celebrate the home's artisanal roots.

Crowning the building is a dramatic three-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex penthouse, defined by sculptural volume and direct access to a sweeping roof deck with panoramic city views. Below sit two refined two-bedroom, one-bath floor-through residences, each offering expansive light and carefully considered details.

The parlor level features an additional two-bedroom, one-bath floor-through with direct access to a serene private patio, an exceptional outdoor extension of the living space. A charming studio apartment in the cellar completes the offering, well-suited for guests, staff, creative use, or supplemental income.

Throughout, state-of-the-art systems, updated lighting, and fresh finishes integrate seamlessly with preserved original details, creating interiors that feel both timeless and newly revived. Kitchens are beautifully appointed with premium appliances, generous storage, and expansive work surfaces, while bathrooms serve as spa-like retreats wrapped in floor-to-ceiling marble.

Perfectly situated across from the storied General Theological Seminary and framed by tree-lined streets, the Donac offers the rare atmosphere of a European enclave in the heart of Manhattan. Its intimate five-residence scale ensures a high degree of discretion, while its adaptability, whether as a long-term investment, a boutique residential conversion, a live-plus-income home, or a singular private residence, provides a level of flexibility seldom found in properties of this character.

Restored with care, architecturally intact, and anchored by provenance that cannot be replicated, the Donac stands as a generational Chelsea asset, ready for its next steward.
