Enter this boutique-scaled, pre-war building from the quiet, tree-lined street via an outstanding tech-based virtual doorman. Upon entering the apartment, you are immediately struck by the rich hardwood floors that gleam in the light under expansive 10-foot ceilings, with exposed beams and a wall of exposed brick that accent the focal point: a working wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, marble counters, a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, a Bertazzoni range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a microwave. A hallway leads to the bedroom and renovated bathroom, enhanced by numerous closets

The unit is outfitted with a Daikin mini-split unit that provides central heating and air-conditioning year-round, as well as integrated ceiling JBL speakers. This serene home faces the back of the building, delivering a uniquely restorative environment in the heart of Manhattan

An oversized storage unit in the basement at no additional cost is a bonus. Building amenities include laundry on site, a bicycle room, an elevator, storage, and a part-time superintendent.

This well-managed pre-war co-op building has been recently renovated with a fresh, industrial-chic design. Located almost equidistant to Union Square and Madison Square Park to the East and the Highline, Hudson River Park, Chelsea Market, and the West Chelsea Art Gallery District to the West, not to mention some of New York’s finest restaurants, art galleries, and shopping, including supermarkets such as Whole Foods and Trader Joes. This location is a beneficiary of multiple neighborhoods: Chelsea, Flatiron District, Nomad, West Chelsea, Greenwich Village, The West Village, Hudson Yards and the Meatpacking District.

Located near major transportation lines, and just two blocks to the 1/C/E subways at the 7th & 8th avenue stations, the F/M at the 6th Ave station is close by too.
