165 W 20TH Street #6F

The perfect Top Floor Alcove studio in The Chelsea Warren. Tastefully renovated, with pre-war charm, but equipped with modern touches throughout. You're immediately hit by wonderful light coming in from the apartment's Southern exposure, but it's extremely quiet due to the set back orientation in the building. There are arched doorways, 9 foot ceilings & parquet floors that are in exceptional condition. The main space is divided into sitting & sleeping areas, but there is flexibility allowing for multiple seating & sleeping arrangements. There's a huge, fully built-out walk-in closet by the sleeping alcove, with sliding "barn" doors that close off both the closet & sleeping area if desired. The apartment also has in-wall speakers & a wall-mounted TV. The separate, windowed Eat-In Kitchen has cafe style table as well as a Miele gas cooktop, a Flashbake oven, side-by-side half fridges & a D/W. There's ample counter space & numerous cabinets. The windowed bathroom, gutted in 2023 to exceedingly high standards, has Samuel Heath faucets & shower fixtures, white Carrera & Nero Marquina black marble floor tiles, a mirror by Design Within Reach & a vanity by Restoration Hardware. In the separate dressing / home office nook is the most coveted of all amenities - an in-unit Miele Washer/Dryer, plus an additional closet. The Chelsea Warren Co-Op dates from 1938, designed by Horace Ginsbern in the Art Deco style. It's well cared for by a live-in super & 3 porters, but has very low maintenance (current capital assessment of $147.45/mo). Additional amenities include a common laundry room, bike storage & storage rooms. The building's lobby & hallways were renovated in 2020, & local law 11 exterior renovation was done in the Spring of 2021. New sidewalks on 20th St & 7th Ave were done in 2022, & new tree pits, guard rails & landscaping were all done in 2023. The pet-friendly co-op allows (with board approval) subletting, gifts, co-purchasing on a case by case basis, & pied-a-terres. LLC & Trust Ownership is also allowed with board approval. 80% financing is allowed. The central Chelsea location provides quick access to subways & parks (Chelsea Green Park is across the street), plus shopping, art galleries, world class restaurants & the Flatiron & Union Square neighborhoods. Trader Joes, The Chelsea Market, Eataly & Whole Foods are all within a few blocks. Seize the opportunity to call this peaceful sanctuary in the heart of Chelsea yours.
