Description

First offer of a CLASSIC CHELSEA LOFT that has been used as a live/work/gallery space showcasing an extensive collection of prized photographs of film and television personalities. This enormous loft space has been ideal for showcasing the current owners' impressive pop culture collection of Elizabeth Taylor, Billie Holiday, Elvis Presley, Ann-Margret and David Bowie, just to name a few. The home abounds with special touches including trompe l'oeil painted columns and walls, a custom built enclosed bar and hardwood flooring. The beauty of this apartment is its flexible floor plan open to endless possibilities. The loft is currently configured as a large one bedroom with the upper level serving as a work studio. At the heart of the main level is the living and dining space with soaring approx. 14-foot ceilings, gas fireplace, and oversized south-facing windows that maximize the light. There is a separate kitchen with pass-through to the dining area, which could easily be opened up to the main living space. The south facing master suite also enjoys double height ceilings and includes a dressing area, ensuite master bath with separate Jacuzzi tub, shower, and double vanity. There is also a powder room off the entry foyer on the main floor. The open wooden staircase leads to the upper loft area that is currently being used as a work studio with a separate storage area. It is open to the living space below and bathed in light from the loft's oversized south facing windows. The entire upper loft area could easily be converted into a second master suite with walk-in closet and full bath. This classic loft building was converted to a condominium in the 90's with a part-time doorman, full time super, storage and a beautiful roof deck. The location in the heart of Chelsea offers the best restaurants, shopping, nightlife and transportation. There is currently an assessment of $457 in place to upgrade the roof deck for the enjoyment of all owners.
