Property Description for 263 Ninth Ave, 5-B

Must see pre-war condo at The Heywood, 263 Ninth Avenue. 1,536sf Loft with soaring ceilings, over-sized windows, and lots of light at The Heywood - a boutique 24-hr Doorman Condo in West Chelsea. Facing east over 9th Avenue with Empire State Building views, this highly sought-after "B" line is an amazing 1,536sf one bedroom loft with second guest room/den and 2 beautifully appointed full baths. From the moment you enter, you will appreciate the layout and scale of this impeccably-designed loft. The entire home has a wonderful sense of Light, Space, and Air accentuated by 6 over-sized 8-ft windows, large open spaces, and 12’2” beamed ceilings. Beautifully renovated with luxe finishes, this rare loft combines both Pre-War Elegance and Modern Luxury. This is truly an impressive home, with a great floorplan including an elegant foyer, large living room and renovated open kitchen (the largest in the building). Appointed with stainless steel appliances (including a vented hood), abundant storage, and a huge island, it’s an entertainer’s and a chef’s dream. The Primary Bedroom Suite, with views of the Empire State Building, is a welcome retreat, with excellent closet space and en-suite 5-fixture marble and limestone bath including glass-enclosed shower and extra deep soaking tub. Separated by full-height pocket doors, the guest room serves as a den, home office, or interior second bedroom with full closet; opened, the room becomes an extension of the entertaining space. Conveniently located near the guest room is the second full bath with basket-weave mosaic marble floor and walk-in shower. This all leads to the Great Room, where wall space and ceiling height create opportunity for art collectors and big screen TV aficionados. There is excellent closet space throughout, a separate laundry/storage closet with washer/dryer (vented), and individually zoned heating and cooling in each room. Beautiful hard wood floors, custom window treatments, and timeless finishes complete the picture. Built in 1914 and converted in 2006, The Heywood is an impeccably run boutique luxury condominium with 50 spectacular lofts designed by Shamir Shah. Amenities include 24-hr Doorman, full-time Super, Porter, and common planted Roof Deck. Two elevators, pet friendly, non-smoking building. FiOS is available.

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.
