Property Description for 252 Seventh Ave, 3-W

Chelsea Grand Loft in the Iconic Pre-War Chelsea Mercantile Condominium is now available.

This remarkable 1,512 SF designer loft is located in one of Chelsea's most prestigious full-service pre-war condominiums. A 19-story architectural landmark known for its grand proportions, impeccable service, and discerning residents, including artists, tastemakers, and notable New Yorkers. This one-of-a-kind residence is filled with distinctive character and grand scale. A dramatic entry opens into a voluminous, gallery-like space with soaring 14-foot ceilings, original pre-war columns restored to their former elegance, and ebonized hardwood floors.

Brilliant recessed lighting and nine-foot south-facing windows bathe the home in warm natural light throughout the day. Every detail reflects artistic intention and mid-century sophistication. Venetian-plastered walls and Bisazza tile mural transform the space. A custom floor-to-ceiling mirrored divider defines the living and dining zones without interrupting flow.

The central dining area comfortably accommodates eight around a stately round table, perfect for entertaining beneath the glow of the original columns. A chef's kitchen for the cook in you serves all your needs.

The private quarters are separated by deco-inspired ebony glass sliding doors that open to the serene primary suite, anchored by a massive walk-in closet and Calacatta gold marble spa bath with radiant-heated floors, soaking tub, and separate enclosed glass shower. At the entry, two generous closets and a guest bath with a solid copper sink, Cortense fixtures, and a gold-leaf ceiling complete the layout. A built-in desk alcove offers space for work or display.

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.
