400 WEST 23RD STREET, #3K

Chelsea, Manhattan, NY 10011

Extraordinary.

This duplex loft in Chelsea will simply take your breath away. A former dance hall from the 1920's has been transformed into a spectacular home with 12-foot ceilings, massive exposed steel beams, and an incredible private terrace.

A listing that's never before been offered for sale, the sellers combined 2 units and connected them via a sculptural steel staircase that showcases an industrial-inspired chandelier and a custom two-story bookcase. Upstairs, you'll find a great room facing north and east, with exposed brick, many walls to display art, a separate dining area and room to host the most memorable gatherings. Framed through 3 large windows, the iconic London Terrace sits majestically across 23rd Street. This floor also has a true cook's kitchen, with a copious amount of counter space and a gorgeous blue Ilve gas range. The "eat-in-kitchen" is an understatement, with enough space for a round table seating 10 people. Two bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms (one freshly and beautifully renovated) complete this floor, also nicely separated from one another.

Descend the stairs to the giant primary bedroom (27' long!), with a large separate seating area and renovated en-suite bathroom with heated floors. The huge walk-in closet also has a full-size washer/dryer and mini kitchen with a sink and fridge. Sunlight streams in to the bedroom through east and south-facing windows and here is access to the showstopper private terrace with a pergola, mature plantings, multiple seating areas, open sky and even a shed to store all your gardening gear. This is a true oasis in the heart of Chelsea, perfect for morning coffee and intimate dinners. The wisteria blooms in May and again in the fall.

400 West 23rd Street is an elevator co-op with a virtual video doorman (grant remote access from your phone), bike racks, storage room and an attentive live-in super. Pets, pieds-a-terre, co-purchasing and subletting after 2 years are all permitted. Enjoy Chelsea Market, the High Line, galleries, fantastic restaurants, Hudson River Park and Chelsea Piers all within this wonderful neighborhood.
