Description

Exquisite 3-bedroom (currently configured as a two) loft with soaring 13' ceilings in sought-after Chelsea Mercantile, in a class all its own. 252 7th Avenue 3I epitomizes prewar elegance, but with a host of designer amenities for modern-day. Step into a warm and inviting entry gallery welcoming you home.

The gracious open floorplan boasts 2,200 sqft of distinctive living and entertaining space, marked by gorgeous hardwoods, museum-quality finish from the lighting to the walls, plus an abundance of natural light.

Sun-soaked interiors and Murano chandeliers set the tone, met by striking ceiling designs, and a great room primed for hosting a crowd. Enjoy a custom-built window seat, generous lounge area, artful dining, and plenty of space for showcasing art.

Perhaps the most compelling feature of all are the towering walls of glass where the condominium's eventful history peeks through extra-large tilt and turn windows revealing wrought-iron railings that harken to the past.

The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with top-of-the-line Viking appliances, custom cabinetry, sleek countertops, and a breakfast bar island. Adjacent tasting nook with wine storage is ideal for pouring your favorite vintage.

In the master suite, simplicity is key. Three large closets are built into the walls to maximize space, in addition to an oversized walk-in wardrobe. Retreat to the en-suite spa bath for the ultimate indulgence, clad in luxurious stone tiles. Dual sinks, a soaking tub and oversized shower that feels like a five-star resort rounds out the experience.

A split bedroom layout assures privacy for residents and guests.

Built in the early 1900s, The Chelsea Mercantile is a premier full-service prewar condominium in a prime Chelsea locale. Among its most alluring amenities is the ground-level Whole Foods Supermarket, where residents enjoy effortless shopping convenience. In addition, the newly-renovated grand lobby is one of the best in all of downtown, adorned in timeless wood and stone finishes, and attended by a 24-hour doorman and concierge.

Residents also appreciate full access to a 10,000 sq ft planted roof deck with sparkling views of the city, a fully-equipped gym, children's playroom, maid and dry cleaning services, and additional private storage. Parking is located on the lower concourse level. This is a higher standard of living in the heart of neighborhood shops, restaurants, art galleries, nightlife and landmarks.

Walking distance to the Chelsea Piers and minutes from the High Line, Union Square, Madison Square Park and multiple subway lines. Few homes compare to the lifestyle and convenience of this Chelsea Mercantile offering. Also available for rent at $13,950/mo.
