Chelsea Mercantile, #10X

Chelsea, Manhattan, NY 10001

This modern, high floor 3 bedroom plus home office is the building's largest offering in this category. It is about function, usability and of course, beauty. The floor-thru configuration spans the entire depth of the building so there are windows facing south, west and north. There are also windows in the home office as well as the master bathroom.The X- line is arguably the most prewar configuration of all units in the Chelsea Mercantile. The very grand foyer opens to a library which is revealed by floor-to-ceiling pocket doors in rift grey oak. The dramatic foyer separates the living room, dinning room, library / home office and kitchen from the bedrooms so there is a distinct separation of both private and communal spaces. The living/ dinning areas are located on the south/west corner of the building and the bedrooms are to the north/west. There is a thoughtfulness and formality to this space which is also undeniably modern. Think upper east side gem transplanted to a modern, prewar condominium with 11 foot ceilings and oversized widows through which brilliant light and views of the Chelsea Hotel can be enjoyed.The renovation of this loft was completed in 2018 and includes a complete redesign of the master bathroom which has a large window above a free standing tub. The shower was enlarged to twice its original size and large scale tiles were chosen to enhance the volume of the room. Fixtures are by Vola and Robern.One of the guest bathrooms which also functions as a powder room is clad in stone panels, a freestanding pedestal stone sink and custom millwork. The combination of these materials is both luxurious and well thought out.The crisp all-white kitchen is both minimal and masterful. The cabinets are double hung so there is an abundance of storage options. There is also large pantry with floor- to - ceiling storage and wine cooler. Appliances are by Subzero, Miele and Viking. There are many closets throughout including a large walk-in closet in the master bedroom. This apartment also comes with private storage located within the building.
