This oversized, sun-soaked studio offers something increasingly rare in the studio market: a true separation between living and sleeping spaces. Not your run-of-the-mill studio, 6D's dedicated sleeping area creates a sense of privacy and definition, while the main living space can be used solely for proper seating, dining, and entertaining.
Classic prewar details give the home its character, including sprawling nine-foot beamed ceilings, sparkling hardwood floors, and oversized casement windows. The windowed kitchen has been fully renovated, including a breakfast bar that ensures it flows seamlessly into the living and dining areas, while the bathroom - featuring a deep, full-sized tub and brand new flooring - is also totally renovated. Residence 6D has been freshly painted in anticipation of its next steward.
Storage is another standout. Custom cabinetry in the dining area and foyer lean into both form and function, while oversized closets outfitted with California Closet systems offer an impressive amount of organized storage. Rarely does a studio live this large, particularly one that is so well-located and housed within one of Chelsea's most desirable full-service prewar coops.
Built in 1930, 201 West 16th Street is a full-service prewar cooperative with a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, laundry room, bicycle storage, private storage, and arguably New York City's most beautifully landscaped roof deck with sweeping downtown, midtown, and Hudson River views. Few nearby buildings offer such a robust amenity package while still offering affordable, prewar charm.
The location puts you at the intersection of Chelsea and the West Village, with the High Line, Hudson River Park, Chelsea's galleries and restaurants, and the shops and cafés of the Village all within easy reach. Multiple transportation options nearby make the rest of the city equally accessible. Pets are welcome, as are pied a terres.
Welcome Home.
