Property Description

Tucked away in the heart of Chelsea, 253 West 16th Street, Unit 1B, presents a rare opportunity to secure a piece of classic Manhattan architecture and transform it into a bespoke urban retreat. This residence serves as a magnificent canvas for your personal touch, offering the kind of foundational elements—like soaring high ceilings and impressive volume—that are becoming increasingly hard to find. The apartment’s oversized windows let natural light play across the hardwood floors, highlighting the living space's generous proportions. The current layout offers a clear sense of flow. The primary suite and kitchen areas are perfectly positioned for a creative refresh, allowing you to bring a custom vision to life with high-end finishes and tailored fixtures that reflect your specific style. It is a space that invites you to think big and create a polished sanctuary that is entirely your own. The building offers a live-in superintendent, laundry room, video intercom, bike storage, and storage units available for rent. In-unit washer/dryer installation is permitted with approval. The co-op allows up to 80% financing. Subletting is permitted after one year of ownership for up to three out of every six years. Guarantors are permitted, and pets are welcome with board approval. Living at 253 West 16th Street places you at the epicenter of downtown culture. You are moments away from the lush greenery of the High Line and the world-renowned contemporary art galleries that define Chelsea’s creative soul. From the artisanal offerings of Chelsea Market to the high-energy dining of the nearby Meatpacking District, the lifestyle perks are unparalleled. With effortless access to multiple subway lines, this is more than just a home—it is a chance to craft your own masterpiece in one of the most desirable corners of the city.
