Discover 261 West 22nd Street — a beautifully proportioned two-bedroom, two-bath residence that blends classic prewar charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Set on a leafy Chelsea block, this expansive home offers the scale and character of a traditional apartment, reimagined for today’s lifestyle. Step inside to an airy layout where a generous dining room flows naturally into a light-filled living area . High ceilings, original architectural details, and wide-plank oak floors set the stage for both relaxed evenings and memorable entertaining. Additional features include a sleek Hearth Cabinet ethanol fireplace, custom built-ins, and oversized windows and 9’2” of ceiling height that welcome in steady northern light. The two bedrooms are quietly tucked away for privacy, each with abundant closet space. The primary suite includes a gut-renovated, spa-inspired bath with a walk-in shower, as well as an in-unit Bosch washer and dryer, while the second full bathroom features stylish tilework and designer wallpaper. A windowed chef’s kitchen anchors the home with Caesarstone counters, custom cabinetry, and top-tier appliances, including a Viking range and Bosch dishwasher. From 2017 to 2020, the home underwent extensive renovations — including new hardwood oak floors, expanded closets, custom built-ins, fresh paint, and other refined upgrades — blending original 1917 detail with modern sophistication. Residents enjoy a landscaped roof deck with sweeping views of the Empire State Building and downtown skyline, complete with an outdoor kitchen and lounge areas. One double-sized deeded storage unit and bicycle storage add everyday convenience, while the pet-friendly, well-managed co-op fosters a sense of community. Perfectly situated near Chelsea’s parks, restaurants, and cultural destinations, this residence is a rare opportunity to own a refined, spacious home in one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
