About This Property

Commanding a coveted position above the High Line at the distinguished 500 West 21st Street, this exceptional corner residence embodies sophisticated contemporary living in the heart of West Chelsea. Offering three bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and a private west-facing terrace overlooking the High Line, the home is defined by gracious proportions, refined finishes, and an abundance of natural light.

A welcoming entry gallery introduces the residence and unfolds into an expansive living and dining room, where a fireplace and oversized floor-to-ceiling casement windows frame open northern and eastern exposures.
