Above the low Chelsea rooftops, with nothing between you and the sky, the evenings here are something else.
The living area extends directly onto the terrace through a floor-to-ceiling sliding glass door, keeping the connection between inside and out immediate. Dark-stained hardwood floors run the full length of the apartment, and the open western exposure keeps the space bright and warm through the second half of every day.
The semi-open kitchen anchors the apartment, separated from the living area by a clean peninsula that seats two. Gray shaker cabinetry pairs with Calacatta-veined quartz countertops and a full matching quartz backsplash. Appliances include a GE Café gas range with cast-iron grates, a stainless over-the-range microwave, and a built-in dishwasher. The layout is efficient and well-proportioned for a one-bedroom, with an in-unit washer and dryer adding everyday convenience.
The bedroom fits a king comfortably, with a full-width wall closet, city views from a black-framed picture window, and the same dark hardwood floors throughout. The bathroom is clean and well-maintained, with white subway tile, a tub and shower combination, chrome fixtures, and a floating white vanity with medicine cabinet storage.
The Atrium is a 45-unit boutique condo in the heart of Chelsea, with 24-hour doorman service and bike storage. Intimate in scale and well maintained, the building is a genuine retreat in one of Manhattan's most walkable neighborhoods.
Chelsea puts you blocks from the High Line, Chelsea Market, and Madison Square Park, with the Flatiron District and Union Square within easy walking distance. Subway access is immediate at 18th Street and 14th Street-8th Avenue (1/A/C/E).
