Property Description for 244 West 23rd Street, 7-D
RARE! Want to live a "WORLD OF INTERIORS" lifestyle? This pre-war loft penthouse is perched above vibrant West Chelsea with The Highline Park, Hudson River Park and hundreds of the world's great contemporary art galleries at your doorstep....not to mention the glimmering Hudson Yards skyline as your view to the north through over-sized arched windows.
Dramatic high ceilings with a wall of shelves create a setting for glamorous entertaining. An efficiently scaled kitchen has been recently renovated with Corian counters, all Bosch appliances with a sublime tiled backsplash. Below is the bedroom and a newly renovated bathroom sheathed in mosaic tile with modern fixtures and heated floors. There is also a powder room for guests. The elevator accesses both floors and there is ducted, central air-conditioning throughout. A stairway leads up to the piece-de-resistance: your own private rooftop terrace with magical views and light all day long.
Hurry: this type and scale of character-rich penthouse rarely becomes available. With a Whole Foods Market, Chelsea Market, a vast array of restaurants and transportation options, this neighborhood has it all. (The maintenance fees could come down over time as the retail space ownership reverts back to the co-op soon).
3% Flip tax payable by seller. An assessment for Local Law 11 work will start on August 1 and will be billed over 8 months. Sorry, no pied-à-terres or LLC purchases allowed.

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.
