Listing Notes

Spacious, versatile, and full of charm, this beautifully appointed flex two-bedroom residence sits in the heart of Chelsea. With soaring ceilings and an interior, west-facing exposure overlooking serene backyard gardens, the home offers a rare sense of quiet and retreat. Rich in character, the apartment blends original details-such as exposed brick and hardwood floors-with thoughtful modern upgrades throughout. Its flexible layout easily accommodates either a true two-bedroom configuration with two generously sized bedrooms and a shared living space, or an expansive one-bedroom with ample room for a home office and dedicated dining area. The fully renovated kitchen features sleek quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry, while the bathroom has been tastefully updated with clean, contemporary finishes. Set within a meticulously maintained, privately owned building, this is an exceptional opportunity to enjoy both comfort and convenience in one of Manhattan's most sought-after neighborhoods.
