Property Description for 144 West 18th Street, 4-E

Located on 18th Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenue in the historic Chainworks Building, Residence 4 East is a sprawling three bedroom, three bath condominium loft. This gorgeous renovated home is nearly 2,700 square feet, and offers triple exposures and endless light through its seventeen 8’ windows.


A gracious entrance foyer leads directly into a massive (over 800 square foot!) corner great room. This extraordinary living, dining, and kitchen space measures over 40’x20’, and features an enormous northern wall of windows along eastern exposures which fill the massive open space with light. A wall of built-ins is perfect for TV and media storage, and the great room is wired with ceiling mounted speakers. The open kitchen sits at on one end of the great room and boasts sleek, white Arclinea cabinets, Caesarstone counters, a 5-burner Miele vented gas cooktop, double Miele ovens, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a granite center island with spacious breakfast bar.


On the other side of the entry foyer are the lofts three immense bedrooms. Eastern and southern exposures and a wall of four oversized windows flood the master bedroom with light. This king-sized bedroom has plenty of space for bedroom furniture as well as a lounging area, and features both a step-in and a walk-in closet. The windowed, en-suite five-fixture master bathroom has been recently updated, and features a glass-enclosed steam shower, extra deep soaking tub, and a custom side-by-side vanity.


The second bedroom is also extremely large and offers an additional walk-in closet and adjacent bathroom. This room is so large that it could easily be converted into a bedroom with a separate den. The third large bedroom also offers generous closet space as well as eastern exposures, and a half-bath across the hall.


Additional storage space is provided through the homes three custom hallway closets, and the laundry room houses a vented Miele washer/dryer and sink. Residence 4 East also offers central air conditioning, 9.5’ ceilings, and hardwood floors throughout. A 20’ full-height storage unit in the basement is provided with the home as well.


Originally built in 1910 as a red brick factory, the historical Chainworks Building at 144 West 18th Street was expertly converted in 2002 into the authentic boutique loft condominium it is today. Behind its distinctive red brick vintage facade, this building offers 18 exquisitely modern homes accessed via a keyed elevator, along with a central laundry room, a 20 square foot full height basement storage space for each home, a large southern facing residents’ terrace on the 7th floor with dining tables and a gas outdoor grill, as well an enormous furnished rooftop sundeck with spectacular skyline and Empire State Building views. The building’s part-time doorman is on duty Monday through Friday from 8am to 10pm, Saturdays from 9am to 9pm, and Sundays from 12pm to 8pm. Located in prime Chelsea, this gorgeous loft conversion building is central to public transportation and close to Flatiron, Union Square, and the Meatpacking District.

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.
