From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Warm, charming and filled with light, this distinctive Chelsea home combines townhouse character with dramatic proportions. Nearly 14-foot ceilings create an exceptional sense of volume, while enormous deep-set windows in both the living room and bedroom fill the apartment with natural light. Twenty-inch-deep window seats overlook the front garden and historic London Terrace across the street. The gracious living room, with its decorative fireplace, flows naturally into the adjacent dining area, just across from the fully appointed separate kitchen with electric range, dishwasher and abundant storage. Storage is exceptional. Two enormous closets in the main living area accommodate everything from coats and all-weather gear to household and kitchen overflow. The bedroom has double closets plus an additional matching tier of storage above, taking full advantage of the home's extraordinary ceiling height. An all-in-one washer/dryer is discreetly concealed in a large bathroom closet. The bathroom itself is thoughtfully designed, with a door separating the washbasin area from the toilet and bathtub for added privacy and convenience. Original hardwood floors with an updated light finish run throughout the home. Located on the second floor of an elevator townhouse with just one other residence on the floor, the apartment offers an unusual sense of privacy. Pets are welcome: one dog or up to two cats permitted by the owner. The location puts the best of West Chelsea close at hand, with neighborhood coffee shops and conveniences just outside your door and Chelsea Piers, the High Line, Chelsea Market, Hudson Yards, Whole Foods and Equinox all within easy reach. Application - $550 per applicant, Credit Report - $110 per applicant, Move-in - $500 Move-out $500
