Description
Residence 5C, located in prime Chelsea on the nexus of Flatiron, Hudson Yards, Meatpacking, and Greenwich Village, features a unique one bedroom and one bathroom on the top floor of a boutique pre-war elevator building located on a quiet tree-lined Chelsea street.
Upon entering the apartment, you are greeted with beautiful natural light from the oversized skylight above the living room, original wood beams from the 1920s, hardwood floors, and expansive 10' ceilings. The wall of exposed brick is accented with a working wood-burning fireplace, delivering old world charm and unique character to this sophisticated space. The pin-drop quiet northwest exposure floods the apartment with light all day.
The smart layout of the apartment is enhanced by numerous closets throughout with a windowed hallway leading to the renovated, zen-like bathroom, featuring a jacuzzi bathtub. The bedroom features tin ceilings, ample closet space and can accommodate a queen-sized bed. The kitchen features Fisher & Paykel stainless steel appliances, a Bosch silent dishwasher, granite countertops and ample storage space.
The home comes with an oversized storage unit in the basement at no additional cost.
Building amenities include laundry on site, a bicycle room, elevator, and a part time superintendent.
Pets, parents buying for children, co-purchasing, guarantors, pied-a-terres, and gifting are welcomed subject to board approval.
This pre-war co-op building has recently been renovated with a fresh, industrial-chic design. Benefit from living in close proximity to the Highline, Chelsea Market, and some of New York's finest restaurants, art galleries and shopping, including supermarkets such as Whole Foods and Trader Joes.
Located near major transportation lines, it is only two blocks to the 1/C/E subways at the 7th & 8th avenue stations, and a 5 minute walk from the F/M at the 6th Ave station. 221 West 21 Street represents a quiet respite in the midst of one of New York's most coveted neighborhoods.
