Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Keller Williams NYC.
The condo-exclusive terrace is the outdoor feature here, and it sits on the 14th floor, the same level as this unit. According to the listing it has a full outdoor kitchen, lounge chairs and tables, and Hudson River views. For a Chelsea apartment, a place to cook and eat outdoors on warm evenings adds a room the rest of the home can't offer.
Inside, this is a 583 square foot alcove studio with 11-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and microwave, granite counters and a breakfast bar. The alcove fits a queen or king bed, and a curtain can close it off for more separation from the living space, which helps when you want the bed out of sight in the evening.
The washer and dryer sit in a dedicated closet inside the unit, so laundry stays at home. There's a coat closet and a walk-in closet as well. Hardwood runs through the apartment, and the bathroom has a deep soaking tub and a three-door storage mirror.
The building has a concierge, an elevator, a spa and a roof deck. The listing also describes a 24/7 doorman, an Equinox gym, a resident lounge, a bike room and an attached garage. Pets are allowed.
The 14 St station on the A, C, E and L lines is about 7 minutes on foot, and the High Line is about 2 minutes away. Western Beef is about 1 minute from the door, and Chelsea Market is about 3 minutes. Friedmans and Corkbuzz are each about 2 minutes away when you'd rather go out.
