Property Description for 255 West 23rd Street, 5-BE
Welcome to your oversized Art Deco one-bedroom at Chelsea Gardens - a rare blend of vintage charm and modern upgrades tucked within one of Chelsea's most tranquil, garden-style communities.
Set just one block from the 1 and C trains, this pin-drop quiet home offers the best of both worlds: the energy and convenience of West 23rd Street, paired with the peaceful, courtyard-facing lifestyle Chelsea Gardens is known for.
Enter through the building's classic Art Deco lobby and take the elevator up to the fifth floor, where a gracious foyer with two oversized closets welcomes you home. Step on to an elevated landing before descending into your dramatic sunken living room - a signature 1940s architectural detail that immediately sets this residence apart.
The recently renovated, windowed kitchen features a Bosch dishwasher, Samsung refrigerator, and Bertazzoni range, paired with bespoke maple cabinetry, granite countertops, a garbage disposal, and a freestanding breakfast bar with built-in storage.
The windowed bathroom exudes classic pre-war glamour with black hex tile, gleaming chrome fixtures, and a sleek glass tub enclosure.
The king-sized corner bedroom offers peaceful, garden-facing views through two exposures (north and east), plus a large closet with custom shelving and through-the-wall A/C.
Chelsea Gardens is a meticulously maintained, full-service co-op with a part-time doorman (off one night per week), live-in super, laundry in each building, bike storage (for a fee), and stunning Art Deco lobbies that preserve the building's 1940 pedigree. Located just moments from the High Line, Hudson Yards, Whole Foods, and an endless roster of Chelsea's best dining, fitness, and cultural destinations - this is city living with soul.

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.
