465 West 23rd Street, 10-E

Stunning open city views to The High Line and the Hudson River from this spacious, well-designed studio in Chelsea's London Terrace Towers. Gracious proportions, an approximately 8'8" beamed ceiling, an entry foyer, hardwood floors and three double-glazed casement windows combine to create a classic ambiance.

The separate, contemporary, windowed kitchen features high-gloss, European lacquer and frosted glass cabinetry, a Mediterranean stone tile backsplash, a Delta spray faucet, a four-burner gas range, a Whirlpool refrigerator and a stainless steel GE Profile dishwasher. Adjoining the kitchen is a butcher block breakfast bar.

Apartment 10E's focal point is the expansive living room with ample space for a king-sized bed, additional furnishings and living, dining and study areas. The walk-in closet has custom blond wood, California-style built-ins with clothing rods, open shelving and an eight-drawer dresser.

Fully renovated, the bathroom suite with recessed lighting and designer fixtures by Duravit, Toto, Jado and Robern offers a full tub and shower and a custom blond wood dressing table with storage, which could also be used as a writing desk, laptop station or home office. These custom features serve to keep the central living space open and bright.

Completed in 1930 by the architectural firm of Farrar and Watmough in the ornamental Tuscan style, London Terrace offers residents spectacular roof gardens with panoramic views, a half Olympic-sized heated indoor swimming pool, a private health club with sauna and steam rooms, a fully attended lobby, a laundry room and bicycle storage and storage when available. Pets are welcome. London Terrace is served by the A, C, E, N, Q, R, W, 1 and 2 trains.

On the US National Register of Historic Places, Chelsea is where culture meets nature. Private galleries join the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Rubin Museum of Art and Poster House to offer art both to view and to collect. After exploring the green spaces of The High Line and the Hudson River Greenway, Chelsea Market in the Meatpacking District and the neighborhood's myriad cafes and restaurants, such as Cookshop, Elmo and Calle Dao, offer a chance to refresh and recharge or to experience Chelsea's convivial nightlife.
