Property Description for 252 Seventh Ave, 9-X

Apartment 9X at the Chelsea Mercantile presents an unparalleled opportunity to own nearly 4,000 square feet of living space in one of the finest pre-war luxury loft buildings downtown. This remarkable 4 bedroom, 4 bath residence with a home office delivers an expansive and sun-drenched haven in the heart of vibrant Chelsea. The introduction to this lavish home begins with a gracious foyer flanked by a wall of custom-built closets and a full guest bath. The foyer flows into an impressive gallery for any size art collection. The gallery delineates the living space from the bedroom wing. Stretching along the south end of the loft you have the great room measuring over 53 feet long and boasting incredible southern sun and views of the historic neighborhood including a postcard-worthy shot of the famous Chelsea Hotel. A wall of contemporary sliding doors conveniently closes off one section of the great room creating a lovely and comfortable media room. The balance of this enormous open living space creates the perfect combined living and dining rooms large enough to accommodate grand-scale entertaining. A large bedroom, currently configured as a home office, is situated behind the great room featuring incredible open views to the west and an enormous walk-in closet. An additional home office is cleverly hidden with a chic sliding door in the center of the gallery. The substantial eat-in kitchen rivals anything you might find in a large suburban home. The kitchen is outfitted with a stretch of stainless-steel cabinetry covered in black Caesarstone counters. The custom cabinetry creates volumes of storage space only topped by the three large custom-built closets bookending the kitchen. The appliances include a six burner Viking range with a dual oven, a vented hood, and a SubZero fridge. The eat-in feature of this kitchen includes a dining table easily accommodating 10 and if that wasn’t enough a separate informal media room flows naturally off the kitchen. A full bath, which doubles as the laundry room in the current configuration, sits conveniently in this section of the loft as well. The bedroom wing is at the opposite end of the gallery featuring three generously proportioned suites. The primary bedroom is enormous and features oversized windows with quiet and sunny northern exposures. The spa-like primary bath includes a double vanity, a rain shower, and deep soaking tub. There is not only a custom-built walk-in closet but a full dressing room with all the bells and whistles necessary to accommodate the largest of wardrobes. The second and third bedrooms are also generously proportioned with beautiful northern exposures, large custom closets, and a shared full bath. Other features of this dramatic residence include 11-foot ceilings, 20 oversized windows offering light and views in every room, pristine solid oak floors, AC throughout, abundant closet and storage space all outfitted to maximize storage, and custom-built cabinetry throughout. The apartment transfers with two large storage rooms, one on the floor and one in the basement. The Chelsea Mercantile at 252 Seventh Avenue is a full-service white-glove Condominium featuring stunning new lobby and impeccable financials boasting some of the lowest carrying charges of any luxury Manhattan building with Whole Foods at the base of the condo. Residents enjoy the best services including a 24-hour doorman, concierge, a resident manager, valet and laundry services, parking with direct elevator access, a state-of-the-art gym, a children’s playroom, and a splendid 10,000 square foot landscaped and furnished roof deck with unparalleled views of the city. The location of the building is simply the best in the heart of it all including Chelsea, Madison Square Park, Flatiron and surrounded by the best restaurants, shops and attractions including Eataly, the West Chelsea Gallery District, Hudson Yards, the Highline, Hudson River Park, and the Chelsea Piers just to name a few. Every mode of public transportation is nearly at your doorstep. There is a special assessment of $2,245 through June, 2025 for the new beautiful roof deck.

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.
