Description
The Character of a Loft. The Feeling of a Townhouse. With soaring beamed ceilings, exposed brick, French doors, and graceful arched entries, Loft 5T offers the architectural character of a historic New York loft with the intimacy and elegance of a townhouse. Located in the south tower of the Chelsea Mercantile, this south-facing, 1,140-square-foot residence seamlessly blends historic details with modern comforts, creating an atmosphere of relaxed, functional luxury. Approximately 11-foot ceilings lend an extraordinary sense of volume, while oversized windows invite natural light into the living spaces. Exposed brick in the home office recalls the building's prewar industrial heritage, and an open kitchen with a generous island brings contemporary ease to everyday living and entertaining. French doors open to a spacious primary bedroom, comfortably accommodating a king-size bed and a casual seating area. The generously proportioned primary bathroom features double sinks, a separate soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Thoughtfully arranged, the home office, guest bathroom, and laundry closet are set apart from the principal living spaces, providing a welcome sense of privacy and architectural balance. The Chelsea Mercantile is a full-service condominium offering the convenience of an on-site garage and Whole Foods Market directly below, in the heart of one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods.

Broker Commission Disclosure: Broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable.
How working with a buyer's agent works: I work for you, not the seller. Before I show you anything, New York brokerage rules ask us to put that in writing: an agreement and a disclosure that say I work for you and negotiate on your behalf. The agreement is non-exclusive: you can work with other agents, it runs for a short fixed term we agree on, and you can end it with a note. You may attend open houses independently without an agreement. Read how it works
