Property Description for 228 West 16th Street, 5-A

Triple Mint and Bright One-Bedroom in Prime Location!

Move right into this top floor, turn-key one-bedroom with open views and fantastic light. This bright and airy railroad style apartment has been fully transformed into a magazine-ready New York City abode, ideal for your NYC pied-a-terre or primary residence.

Nothing was spared to achieve this high-end gut renovation including beautiful white oak floors, well-thought out storage, an oversized combined LG Washer/Dryer and a beautiful bathroom with Ann Sacks tiles and a heated Toto toilet. The custom kitchen, built in Italy, features Carrera marble mosaic backsplash, high-end appliances such as a fully integrated Liebherr refrigerator and Bosch convection oven/microwave and stunning custom lighting. The spacious and inviting living room boasts a fireplace and an adjacent windowed dining room, large enough for a dinner party. The bedroom of this railroad style apartment was designed to bring to mind the nostalgia and luxury of the Golden Age of rail travel, but with 2018 high-tech additions. The bedroom’s current double sized built-in bunk beds can be removed to accommodate a queen size bed, if preferred.

All this in a pet-friendly, very lenient coop allowing a pied-a-terre, co-purchasing, purchase by parents and SUBLETTING, WITH BOARD APPROVAL, ALLOWED ON FIRST DAY OF OWNERSHIP! Easy sublet application. The apartment is four flights up, and well worth it. Centrally located on the highly desirable tree-lined block of West 16th street, and close to the West Village, Meatpacking District, High Line, Chelsea Market, great restaurants, galleries and easy access to the A,C,E, and L train entrance, as well as the 1,2 and 3 trains.

Chelsea | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The row houses portray the world-class architecture of Greek Revival, Italianate and Georgian styles. The population is both ethnically and socially diverse, which is reflected in the restaurants and retail businesses in the neighborhood. 

Western Chelsea is the center of the NYC art world, where you will find more than 200 art galleries housed in rehabbed factories and warehouses, as well as in newly-constructed buildings.

While people of many different cultures call Chelsea home, it has been a mecca over the years for people in the LGBTQ community. One census reported that as many as 22% of its residents were gay couples. Eighth Avenue is a trendy area for LGBTQ-oriented dining and shopping. Although it no longer draws the LGBTQ population that it once did, Chelsea still has many popular alternative bars.  

Chelsea is primarily residential, consisting of a mixture of diverse complexes, low-rise apartment blocks, tenements, townhouses, renovated row houses, and luxury high-rises. 

Chelsea is an interesting and sought-after place to live, with unique clothing boutiques, restaurants, and delis representing cultures from around the world. In addition to its quirky establishments, Chelsea has fine dining restaurants and a vibrant, hip nightlife, which adds to its allure.

Chelsea is well-served by public transportation. At least six city bus routes traverse Chelsea. There are three NYC subway routes with stops on Seventh Avenue, three on Eighth Avenue, and two more on Sixth Avenue. The 34th Street - Hudson Yards Station opened in 2015 with its main entrance in Chelsea.
