447 W 18TH Street #8A

This sexy one-of-a-kind designer loft with open High Line views overlooks the heart of the West Chelsea gallery district. With thoughtful upgrades plus a glimpse of the Hudson River, the south-facing living space has been opened to create a chic great room with nearly 30 feet of uninterrupted floor-to-ceiling windows in a architectural landscape of modern minimalism. The open kitchen is trimmed in walnut, terrazzo, and stainless. Large master suite includes walk-in closet and sleek en-suite bath with cool limestone, teak/glass rainshower, and soaking tub by Starck and Duravit. Second full bath is finished in brushed porcelain and a walnut vanity. Extras abound, like wet bar with icemaker, utility room w/ washer/dryer, and built-in media w/ state-of-the-art 7-zone SONOS A/V system throughout. Additional smart-home elements include a Nest thermostat HVAC, both systems seamlessly controlled by your smartphone or tablet. Second bedroom is easily returned to the layout, if preferred. The recipient of numerous architectural awards, 447 West 18th Street is the brainchild of architect Audrey Matlock. Its striking angular glass faade punctuated with dashes of blue reflecting the nearby River sets it among the most eye-catching of the feast of avant-garde architecture for which the High Line/Arts district is known.
