Property Details
Description
This pre-war, thoughtfully laid out apartment is a charming home in lower Chelsea replete with crown molding and elegant detail. It is a combined unit with an efficient layout featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and plenty of storage. The entrance foyer leads to a spacious 'great' room, which includes a renovated open kitchen with a breakfast bar as well as a comfortable dining area. The kitchen includes Caesarstone quartz countertops, a paneled Sub-Zero fridge and freezer, and a paneled Bosch dishwasher. The master bedroom easily fits a king-sized bed and features gorgeous built-ins and a walk-in closet. The master bath has herringbone Carrara marble floors, a glass shower, and a large vanity. The second bedroom is even larger and features custom built-in shelves and two closets with California Closet organization systems. The third bedroom can fit a queen bed and can be used as a nursery or office as well. This serene home is nestled on one of the best central blocks in lower Chelsea near many restaurants and most major subways, yet still feels so peaceful and quiet. This classic pre-war co-op has a wonderful live-in super who accepts packages, a central laundry room, and bike storage. Pets allowed case by case.
