225 West 25 Street   Unit 4A

This prewar one bedroom has loads of character: check out the multiple archways, the original crown and oak baseboard molding, the picture rail, three different types of original oak flooring, original wrought-iron railing, and one of the friendliest and spacious layouts the Art Deco design era has to offer. The large sunken living room is well separated from the huge bedroom. There is an separate dining area framed by archways which can also be used as an office since the living room is big enough for both! The windowed, renovated galley kitchen shares a non-structural wall with the living room and can be further tweaked to create an open kitchen offering twice the amount of counter and cabinet space. The updated bathroom has a long, deep cast-iron tub, clean lines and a window for light and ventilation. In addition to the four generous closets, this home comes with free private storage space in the basement. With north and east exposures (at least one window in every room and three in the bedroom...), the apartment gets light, is super-quiet but offers no views. One of the best-kept secrets of upper Chelsea, the 66-unit elevator building has a furnished lobby, a lovely roof deck, video security, a live-in superintendant who takes packages, free private basement storage, free bike storage, a central laundry room and friendly neighbors. Pets welcome.
