Property Description for 253 West 16th Street, 1-A
This exquisite prewar home provides a full, high-end renovation blending classic, 1930s style with modernist sensibilities at the crossroads of Chelsea, West Village, and Meatpacking District.
The 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment measuring approximately 1100sf is located on the parlor floor of a quiet, tree-lined sidestreet and features the highest ceilings in this well-maintained, prewar Co-Op.
The apartment has an open, welcoming layout that balances beautiful design with maximum functionality.
The windowed, eat-in kitchen is fully-equipped with a Miele dishwasher, Liebherr refrigerator, and Wolf range, paneled to blend in and disappear. Also concealed is an in-unit GE washer/dryer, designed to make your life easier. But the charm of the kitchen is its beautiful design. At its heart is a dramatic, 15' backsplash made of a single slab of Carrera Ora marble, stylishly lit with under-cabinet lighting. Custom cabinets, pantry, and honed concrete countertops complement this elegant look.
The windowed bathroom spares no expense, featuring full Ann Sacks tile and fixtures, and generous, tastefully designed storage space. The bedrooms are substantial in size and feature CitiQuiet windows to ensure sound sleep any time of year.
The apartment features numerous south-facing windows allowing sun to fill each room throughout the day. Refinished dark oak hardwood floors add a touch of style to every room as do elegant baseboards, newly skim-coated walls, and period-appropriate, eased plaster crown moldings.
Situated at the intersection of Chelsea, West Village, and Meatpacking District, the apartment is at the epicenter of the best of downtown living. It is just steps away from Union Square Greenmarket, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Hudson River Park, Chelsea Piers, and Chelsea Market.
This sought-after Co-Op offers the rare combination of preservation and attention to detail with low maintenance costs. There is a $129 capital improvements assessment that expires in January 2016. The building, is equipped with an elevator, and has a live-in super that accepts packages. Co-Purchasing, Gifting and Parental Purchasing are allowed. Pied-a-terre's and pets permitted upon approval.
This is a special home for someone who appreciates the best in design, an incredible prewar building, and the perfect neighborhood.

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.
