Barbara Gladstone’s Chelsea Townhouse Lists for $11.995 Million — With Curated Style to Match
When art and architecture collide, the result is often iconic. Such is the case at 344 West 22nd Street, the former home of famed gallerist Barbara Gladstone, which just hit the market for $11.995 million. Represented by Scott Hustis and Mark Jovanovic of Paradigm Advisory, this Chelsea townhouse isn't just a residence — it’s a masterstroke in artful living, imagined by none other than acclaimed architect Annabelle Selldorf.
The relationship between Gladstone and Selldorf is one that has spanned decades and gallery walls alike. In fact, Selldorf’s first collaboration with Gladstone was the very design of this townhouse. Its success later led to Selldorf helming the architecture for all Gladstone Gallery locations in New York City. In Gladstone’s own words, “the thing about Annabelle that I like is that she's capable of having the architecture serve the art” — a philosophy that’s exquisitely on display in this four-story, 4,395-square-foot home.
With five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two half baths, the home blends minimalism with artistic flair. Gallery-like white walls stretch across each floor, ideal for spotlighting a collector’s dream curation. A sculptural curved staircase winds through the space like a visual crescendo, while floor-by-floor balconies offer leafy outlooks onto a serene garden crafted by celebrated landscape designer Piet Oudolf. It's a layout that breaks the boxy mold of traditional townhomes, breathing fluidity and connection between interior and exterior.
For over three decades, Gladstone displayed her personal collection of contemporary heavyweights here. The townhouse recently took center stage again when Sotheby’s auctioned off 12 works from her collection — including pieces by Andy Warhol, Richard Prince, Thomas Schütte, and Rudolf Stingel — with expectations to exceed $12 million. While the art may be gone, the provenance and atmosphere remain baked into every detail.
