Property Description for 405 West 23rd Street, 9-F

Isn't it time to start exerting your Independence!

Be the first to enter this fixer-upper on the 9th floor with expansive southern views overlooking West Chelsea Historic District and beyond. The twinkling cityscape lights of New York City in the evening are sublime! If you lived here you will also experience the brilliant sunlight streaming in throughout the day.

Do you have a vision of your next home? Can it be channeled through Architecture? How about a raw space where you can introduce your own signature style or brand? Now is the opportune time to create a serene Zen environment here in 405 West 23rd Street, Residence 9F. The existing pictures represent the space as is, however, the long term resident is vacating soon. We have introduced virtually staged photos that may provide inspiration for the renovation of this diamond in the rough.

You'll go bananas over the original late circa 1920's steel entry door, door frames, radiator covers + window-sills just waiting to be brought back to their original luster. Under the multiple paint layers, you'll discover solid beech wood doors, original baseboards and 3 " solid oak-plank flooring. All pre war details that are accented by 9' +/- concrete beamed ceilings and casement style sound-insulating windows.

What to do with a separate windowed galley kitchen waiting to be transformed into a practical and efficient space? How about introducing an abundance of cabinetry, stone top counters and breakfast bar.

A fully subway tiled prewar bathroom w / extra-deep cast iron soaking tub, porcelain sink and medicine cabinet are signature features here in London Terrace Towers. The mosaic tile floor reminds one of an era-gone by.

The sizable Great Room is just shy of 14' wide and can accommodate a separate Bed Alcove area, (to be created) full living room ensemble, dining and / work station. When one wishes to adjust the temperature, a under window, through-wall AC unit provides the ultimate cooling experience.

Our 3K Sq. Ft state of the art fitness center welcomes you and your personal trainer. You may wish to utilize one of our in-house fitness instructors.

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.
