Description

Fall in love with this exquisitely renovated junior one-bedroom located in one of Chelsea's premier full-service buildings.

Arguably one of the best junior one layouts in the building, Apartment 7E offers bright, southern exposure and a wonderful open floor plan. The owners spared absolutely no expense with this unit's renovation just a few years back. The windowed kitchen is stunning, complete with bright white custom cabinetry, modern open shelving, beautiful penny drop backsplash, gleaming white countertops, chimney style range hood and, of course, stainless steel appliances (which includes a dishwasher, oven, counter depth refrigerator and under-cabinet microwave). Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is the gracious and bright living area with excellent space for both entertaining and dining. Not to worry, custom-built window shades help temper the sun's rays. Newly installed frosted glass pocket doors offer not one but two entrances to the oversized sleeping alcove, a perfect respite for peaceful slumber. A phenomenal dressing area has been outfitted with custom wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling closets. Completing the picture here is the truly gorgeous, spa-like bathroom that features soaking tub, frameless shower door, Kohler fixtures, magnificent tile work, and spacious vanity. Hardwood floors, high beamed ceilings, thru the wall air conditioning, and all new lighting throughout. This is a MUST see.

161 West 16th Street is a full-time doorman building with a gorgeous planted roof deck, resident superintendent, central laundry, and bicycle room. The building's location simply cannot be beat, as nearly every subway line is nearby: 1, 2, 3, A, C, E, F, M, N, R, Q, W, 4, 5, 6, L and Path train. Enjoy all of the amazing restaurants, markets, shops, and cultural institutions nearby including: Union Square Park, Union Square Farmer's Market, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, The Rubin Museum, and more. Pets allowed. There is a 2% flip tax, split equally by buyer and seller.
