Description

This fabulously designed residence in one of the most remarkable buildings in New York City will exceed expectations of the most discerning taste.

The soul of this 4,271 square foot, 4 bedroom, 4 and a half bathroom home are the unmatched panoramic windows providing each room with iconic 360 degree views of the Hudson River and the Manhattan Skyline via north, south, east and west exposures.
From sunrise to sunset, enjoy wraparound views of this spectacular, remarkable city as well as the cruise ships and yachts that sail their way up the Hudson River.

This ultra-luxury boutique building, with only 44 residences, is located in one of the most vibrant and sought after neighborhoods in the world, in the heart of Chelsea Arts District with Hudson River Park and The Highline right at your door.
A private elevator takes you directly into your home, opening to a dramatic entry gallery. Step beyond the gallery and into a spacious corner living room with mesmerizing southwestern River and city views. Grand double doors lead to the family room, while the west-facing dining room allows for both formal and casual dining.

The custom designed elegant interiors are expertly crafted with white oak herringbone flooring, soaring 11' ceilings, impressive 9' tall double doors, cove lighting, deep thresholds and luminous deep window sills for comfortable seating and sunset watching. Foster + Partners innovative design is notable in the sleek windowed eat-in kitchen featuring elegant and state of the art finishes and appliances.

The gracious corner master suite offers serene river and city views, and is equipped with abundant closet space and a luxurious en-suite master bathroom. On the northeast corner is a second bedroom with unmatched West, South and Eastern views as well as en-suite windowed bathroom.

The third bedroom also has an en-suite bathroom and features a perfectly framed view of the Empire State Building to the southeast. Adjacent to the master suite is a study or a fourth bedroom with en-suite bathroom and views of Hudson Yards and the river.

This residence is fully integrated with the most advanced home technology systems, including motorized blinds, multi-room in-ceiling Sonos, I/P security cameras and more. It has a separate powder room and oversized laundry room with a side by side Miele washer and dryer, as well as a dedicated service entrance for deliveries.

551 West 21 provides an altogether intimate arrival experience with a private gated entrance and a grand internal ivy-clad drive court. Residents are greeted in an awe-inspiring 34 foot double height cathedral-like lobby with concierge, doorman and full valet service, with on-site car storage and electric charging ports.
Additional amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center with treatment rooms, a yoga room, residents' lounge, playroom, bike storage, a live-in resident manager and a dedicated, separate service entrance for all deliveries and move in/move out.

West Chelsea is unquestionably Manhattan's most cultured, creative, exciting neighborhood with world's greatest architecture. Whether it is a walk on the High Line to the West Village, a stroll through Little Island, a visit to the new Whitney Museum, an opening at any one of the multitude of art galleries, golf at Chelsea Piers, run or bike ride along Hudson River Park, or a quick escape from the city from the nearby heliport, Chelsea's diversity of enjoyments are endless.
