Property Description for 144 West 18th Street, 5-E
Exceptional Three Bedroom Condominium Loft in Chelsea
With stunning proportions, clean architectural lines and seventeen windows bathing the home in light on three sides, this mint-condition 2,693 square foot 3 Bedroom 2.5 Bath loft is an exceptionally beautiful property.
Framed by fifteen feet of arched windows and preceded by an elegant foyer, the 40 x 20 foot Great Room with north and east exposures is perfect for both grand-scale entertaining and intimate family gatherings. A gorgeous open kitchen with Arclinea cabinetry, top-of-the-line appliances and a large center-island is truly a chef's delight.
A thirty-two foot gallery separates the public and private spaces leading to three expansive bedrooms. The 15 x 20 foot master bedroom, with south and east exposures, features a windowed five-fixture en-suite bath and a seventy square foot walk-in closet. The south-facing second bedroom and east-facing third bedroom are both large with excellent closet space and share a nicely-renovated second bath. There's also a lovely powder room for guests.
Additional features of the home include a washer/dryer, two-zone central air-conditioning, a total of seven closets, beautiful hardwood maple floors and a separate, private storage unit.
144 West 18th Street, also known as The Chainworks Building, was built in 1888 and converted into a boutique condominium of just eighteen residences in 2002. The building has a part-time doorman, an on-site superintendent, floor-keyed elevators, an outdoor resident's lounge with a gas grill, a rooftop sundeck, and a bicycle room.

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.
