255 West 23rd Street, 4-CE

Sometimes more is more and the C line offers more in many ways from the oversized foyer, the windowed kit and bath with a large separate dining area, the well-proportioned Living room and bedroom and 2 garden facing bright exposures.
The C line is the most coveted one bedroom apartment line in Chelsea Gardens. Where else can you have, light, quiet, a windowed Kitchen with a separate dining area, a large entrance foyer, garden views and a reasonable mtc. in a prewar doorman building in a hot Chelsea location?
Nowhere but here.
This home is extra ordinary because it has been carefully designed to enhance all the deco details that make this building so appealing. The foyer has been divided into a hall and separate study area that has a closet and can accommodate a twin bed separated by sliding panels. The Kitchen Highlighted on HGTV features a custom art deco stained glass window with a garden view, custom celadon Corian counters, vintage style glass front cabinets and a Smeg ref. There is a large dining area with custom built ins featuring a banquet seating area and shelving allowing the space to feel like a dining/library. The bedroom has 2 exposures onto the buildings common garden that allows you to wake up to birds, swaying leaves. The entire apartment is bathed in Northern and Western light and is pin drop quiet day and night. The sunken Living room and foyer have original plaster details. The windowed bath has been upgraded in concert with the original prewar feeling of the building, with a large steel and porcelain tub.
Chelsea Gardens is a rare example of late 1930's Art Deco architecture. There is a full service staff including a 24 hour doorman and live in super, 24 hour laundry in the basement and additional storage available as well as a bike room. The buildings most striking feature, besides the vintage style lobbies, is the large common garden that is available to all residents to enjoy with multiple seating areas, table and chairs. There are 4 entry lobbies around the garden giving the complex the feeling of a small village with a very neighborly community feeling that is very unique in the middle of busy Manhattan, especially half a block from 2 subway lines and a short walk to everything Chelsea has to offer including the High Line, Galleries and shopping. Agent is also a resident/shareholder in the building.
