Why It’s So Popular
Penthouse living has never been prettier! This large 1-bedroom condo located in the heart of Chelsea provides endless privacy and peace from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan.
The luxury begins immediately with an exclusive elevator that takes you directly into the unit. Step off the lift and into a super-long entryway, with a plethora of blank wall space to paint and decorate to your heart’s content.
Follow this sweeping hallway all the way to the right to find an extremely generous combination living/dining room, which benefits from floor-to-ceiling, south-facing exposures. A gas-powered fireplace embedded within a chic black stone mantle serves as a wonderful focal point to the room.
It also effortlessly complements the black stone countertops in the fully open kitchen, which can be seen most prominently at the eat-in breakfast bar. Other kitchen highlights include the five-burner cooktop, gigantic pantry, and walk-in closet, plus cabinets with frosted glass accents.

The spacious and sunny floorplan — with seamless flow between the living room, dining area, and kitchen — makes the home the perfect place to entertain guests, especially considering the stunning terrace on the other side of the unit. But before we get to that…
Let’s talk about the home’s gorgeous bedroom, with its gleaming hardwood underfoot and convenient recessed lighting overhead. Pass through a dedicated dressing area to reach the en-suite bathroom, which comes with double mirrors over the sink and a massive walk-in shower.
The bedroom also comes with direct access to the crown jewel of the unit: the terrace! Providing picturesque city views and room for multiple outdoor furnishings, this special space is the perfect spot to soak up the rest of summer.
With an in-unit washer/dryer, an additional powder room, and plenty of building perks like a gym and integrated security system, this penthouse pad is a no-brainer.
