Description

NEW PRICE! Designed and executed by Architectural Digest AD100 architects Marmol Radziner, this exquisite light-filled home offers protected panoramic views that span from Hudson Yards to Midtown. With almost 45 feet of northern width/frontage, you enter via a gracious lobby that leads to the main living room perfect for entertaining on a grand scale, spanning almost 28 feet in length. This elegantly proportioned home with loft-like 11’ ceiling heights is perfectly positioned on a high floor, one flight away from the magnificent building roof terrace. The exquisite renovation has been executed to the most exacting standards with a remarkable level of thought and detail.

Wide oak hardwood floors by Shotten & Hansen are featured throughout, beautifully revealed via an extensive, fully-integrated lighting system by Lutron. The kitchen features custom-milled blackened oak cabinetry, Calacatta Marble island, Granite counters, Dornbracht fixtures, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and top-end Miele appliances. This elegant home features extensive custom millwork throughout, and impressive floor-to-ceiling pocket doors that create sublime enfilade as the living room progresses through the study / second bedroom to the primary bedroom beyond. A wall of shelves in the living room highlights the extensive storage throughout, and all closets are expertly fitted for maximum efficiency. Additionally, there are motorized "pop-up" TVs in both the living room and the study that are hidden away when not in use. The Primary suite is a sanctuary of refinement with generous walk-in closets custom fitted in bleached oak casework and an en suite bathroom wrapped in floor-to-ceiling Travertine Marble with expansive vanity and walk-in shower.

Other notable amenities include in-unit laundry room with built-in cabinetry and Bosch washer/dryer, fully-integrated AV system, invisible speakers, and electronic shades in all windows. The Chelsea Mercantile is a full-service luxury Condominium with a recently renovated lobby with 24-hour doorman services, parking with direct elevator access, a state-of-the-art gym, a children’s playroom, an in-house laundry/dry-cleaning valet service, supplemental laundry facilities (the unit has a washer-dryer too), and an enviable landscaped roof terrace. This location nestled between centrally positioned Madison Square Park and Hudson Yards/West Chelsea is rich in amenities, with a Whole Foods Market at your doorstep, and Eataly, Chelsea Market, and Trader Joe’s, to name a few, close by. Additional nearby attractions include The Highline and Hudson River Parks, Chelsea Piers, The West Chelsea Arts District with over 400 of the world’s leading contemporary galleries, and Madison Square Park just two blocks away.

The brand-new Moynihan Station and Fashion Institute of Technology are also a few blocks away. Ongoing Capital Assessment of $301.48 to fund capital projects. There is an assessment of $994 per month from July 2023 thru June 2025. This assessment is for roof work, upgrading the roof deck amenity space, and modernizing the 9 elevators
