What could be more charming than a secret garden in Chelsea? That’s the exact setting that sets this home apart. It’s located inside a lovely separate carriage house, circa-1850, in a building’s interior courtyard. So you walk into the building from the street, then out into the back courtyard, where this lovely cobblestoned and landscaped garden feels like a hidden oasis right in the heart of downtown.
Inside, the apartment continues to entice. The living area is bright, sunny, and spacious. It opens to a positively luxe kitchen, outfitted with super-high-end appliances (including a Bosch diswasher), honed-granite counters, and chic open shelving. The bedroom is plenty big enough for a king-size bed and also boasts a huge walk-in closet. And the spa-like bathroom features a gorgeous glass-enclosed shower with three shower heads for maximum relaxation. Plus there’s one more bonus, nestled in a bathroom closet: a stackable Bosch washer/dryer. So this Chelsea 1BR offers old-school charm, modern convenience, and an unparalleled location, all for far less than the neighborhood median!
