Property Description for 256 West 21st Street, 1-B

256 West 21st Street, Residence 1B is beautifully designed by Italian architect, Luca Andrisani. Located one flight up in a classic prewar building in Chelsea, Andrisani designed the apartment to maximize space and provide an extraordinary amount of storage.

Soaring 11-foot high ceilings, charming whitewashed brick walls and oak hardwood floors are a few of the many notable features. Oversized south-facing windows flood the space with natural light and overlook a quiet garden filled with greenery.

A modern double-sided storage wall separates the living room from the bedroom. This dynamic architectural feature can be used as a media center, art display or book shelf and even has storage tailored to fit luggage. Hidden behind the white-lacquered wall is a rotating flat-screen television that can be viewed from both the living room and bedroom.

The gallery style kitchen features oak cabinets, a quartz countertop, and thoughtfully disguised stainless-steel appliances. Next to the pantry is a refrigerator tucked behind cabinetry. Adjacent to the kitchen is an updated bathroom with yet again, more storage for linens. Every cubic-inch in this home is taken advantage of.

Slide open the pocket door to the bedroom and reveal a wall clad in wide oak planks. This detail sets the tone in the bedroom and provides a warm balance in contrast to the white walls. The bedroom is large enough to comfortably fit a queen size bed and boasts a custom walk-in closet behind the feature wall.

256 West 21st Street is a prewar cooperative building built in 1900 and located in Chelsea between Seventh and Eighth Avenue. This five-story walk-up building contains 35 residential units and a sky blue crowning cornice. The building features a newly renovated common roof deck with 360 degree panoramic views towards the Empire State Building, Hudson Yards and Freedom Tower. There is storage available for rent, bike storage available, a building laundry room and a new butterfly video intercom system.

Chelsea is a vibrant neighborhood with attractions like The Highline, Chelsea Market, Little Island and is home to New York's best restaurants, shops and more than 200 art galleries. The apartment is near the 1,2, A, C, E, F and L train lines.

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.
