...A gorgeous alcove studio on the fifth floor at The Chelsea Warren offers a serene southern exposure and new soundproofed hardwood floors, ensuring a bright, pin-drop quiet interior. Architectural enthusiasts will appreciate the signature Art Deco arches and high ceilings that lend an airy feel to the home.

The intelligent layout features a spacious step-down living and dining room that flows into a cozy sleeping alcove with sunset views that can be closed off to create a real one bedroom layout! A chef’s kitchen was renovated with high-end appliances and great storage, a windowed bathroom and separate dressing area provide added privacy and function.

Designed in 1938 by Horace Ginsbern, this impeccably maintained co-op features a live-in super and a recently renovated lobby and hallways. Residents have in the building a common laundry room, bike storage, and private storage. The pet-friendly (on approval) building offers flexible ownership options, including subletting after 2 years of ownership, gifting, and pied-Ć -terre use with board approval. Currently Local Law 11 is being done through the end of the summer.

Located directly across from Chelsea Green Park, and close to galleries, Trader Joe’s, and Chelsea Market. This is a rare, turn-key opportunity to own a peaceful retreat in Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhood.
