Property Description for 165 West 20th Street, 6-F

The perfect Top Floor Alcove studio in The Chelsea Warren. Tastefully renovated, with pre-war charm, but equipped with modern touches throughout. You're immediately hit by wonderful light coming in from the apartment's Southern exposure, but it's extremely quiet due to the set back orientation in the building. There are arched doorways, 9 foot ceilings & parquet floors that are in exceptional condition. The main space is divided into sitting & sleeping areas, but there is flexibility allowing for multiple seating & sleeping arrangements. There's a huge, fully built-out walk-in closet by the sleeping alcove, with sliding "barn" doors that close off both the closet & sleeping area if desired. The apartment also has in-wall speakers & a wall-mounted TV. The separate, windowed Eat-In Kitchen has cafe style table as well as a Miele gas cooktop, a Flashbake oven, side-by-side half fridges & a D/W. There's ample counter space & numerous cabinets. The windowed bathroom, gutted in 2023 to exceedingly high standards, has Samuel Heath faucets & shower fixtures, white Carrera & Nero Marquina black marble floor tiles, a mirror by Design Within Reach & a vanity by Restoration Hardware. In the separate dressing / home office nook is the most coveted of all amenities - an in-unit Miele Washer/Dryer, plus an additional closet.

The Chelsea Warren Co-Op dates from 1938, designed by Horace Ginsbern in the Art Deco style. It's well cared for by a live-in super & 3 porters, but has very low maintenance (current capital assessment of $147.45/mo). Additional amenities include a common laundry room, bike storage & storage rooms. The building's lobby & hallways were renovated in 2020, & local law 11 exterior renovation was done in the Spring of 2021. New sidewalks on 20th St & 7th Ave were done in 2022, & new tree pits, guard rails & landscaping were all done in 2023. The pet-friendly co-op allows (with board approval) subletting, gifts, co-purchasing on a case by case basis, & pied-a-terres. LLC & Trust Ownership is also allowed with board approval. 80% financing is allowed. The central Chelsea location provides quick access to subways & parks (Chelsea Green Park is across the street), plus shopping, art galleries, world class restaurants & the Flatiron & Union Square neighborhoods. Trader Joes, The Chelsea Market, Eataly & Whole Foods are all within a few blocks. Seize the opportunity to call this peaceful sanctuary in the heart of Chelsea yours.

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.
