Description

Sparking South sunshine greets you as you move from the entry hall with two oversized closets and arrive in the enormous foyer, which can be a terrific gallery, library, or formal dining area. Continue on to the spacious dropped living room that features original oak parquet floors two substantial windows and through-wall AC.

To the side is the expansive open kitchen featuring custom imported cabinets with amazing storage, Sub Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, new GE convection range, and large marble eating counter, all nicely separated from the living area.

The primary bedroom is generously proportioned and has an eleven-foot wall of custom closets, a double South-facing window, and another through-wall AC. Off the kitchen find the second bedroom, which is hidden behind pocket doors. This flexible space with a quiet north-facing window and its own AC can also serve as a dining room or private home office. The windowed bathroom features custom marble subway tiles and a combination bathtub and shower, and is next to a very large linen closet.

This distinctive home has a gracious and sophisticated floor plan that offers large entertaining spaces plus amazing flexibility. The original configuration can easily be replicated, or the space can be reconfigured to be even more open. This unique blend of beautifully-restored Art Deco plaster and architectural details with contemporary custom upgrades is a rare opportunity in a distinctive and perfectly-located prewar coop apartment building.

Chelsea Gardens is a prime example of 1930's Art Deco architecture. The complex is made up of two building with two wings each that wrap around a lush private common garden that gives the buildings the feeling of a walled village. There is a full time doorman, live in super, 24 hr laundry in basement, bike room and additional storage for a monthly fee (when available).
