244 W 23rd Street #7-D

RARE! Want to live a "WORLD OF INTERIORS" lifestyle? This pre-war loft penthouse is perched above vibrant West Chelsea with The Highline Park, Hudson River Park and hundreds of the world's great contemporary art galleries at your doorstep....not to mention the glimmering Hudson Yards skyline as your view to the north through over-sized arched windows. Dramatic high ceilings with a wall of shelves create a setting for glamorous entertaining. An efficiently scaled kitchen has been recently renovated with Corian counters, all Bosch appliances with a sublime tiled backsplash. Below is the bedroom and a newly renovated bathroom sheathed in mosaic tile with modern fixtures and heated floors. There is also a powder room for guests. The elevator accesses both floors and there is ducted, central air-conditioning throughout. A stairway leads up to the piece-de-resistance: your own private rooftop terrace with magical views and light all day long. Hurry: this type and scale of character-rich penthouse rarely becomes available. With a Whole Foods Market, Chelsea Market, a vast array of restaurants and transportation options, this neighborhood has it all. (The maintenance fees could come down over time as the retail space ownership reverts back to the co-op soon). 3% Flip tax payable by seller. An assessment for Local Law 11 work will start on August 1 and will be billed over 8 months. Sorry, no pied-à-terres or LLC purchases allowed.
