Property Description

Nestled on one of Chelsea’s most picturesque tree-lined blocks, this beautifully renovated one-bedroom garden apartment at 252 West 21st Street offers a rare combination of charm, privacy, and seamless indoor-outdoor living in the heart of Manhattan.

The inviting home features a spacious layout with hardwood floors, exposed brick, a wood-burning fireplace, and oversized windows that fill the apartment with natural light throughout the day. A bright south-facing solarium, currently configured as a dining area, overlooks the stunning private garden and creates the perfect setting for morning coffee or entertaining guests.

The beautifully landscaped private garden — nearly 700 square feet — is a true urban oasis, complete with mature plantings, ivy, rose bushes, and custom lighting that creates a magical atmosphere in the evening.

The updated kitchen features granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, glass-front cabinetry, and full-size stainless steel appliances, while the pin-drop quiet bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed with additional furniture.

Additional highlights include three generous closets, through-the-wall air conditioning, private basement storage, and access to common laundry. Located in an intimate pet-friendly pre-war cooperative near the High Line, Chelsea Market, renowned galleries, restaurants, and multiple subway lines, this special home offers timeless downtown character with the rare luxury of a true private garden retreat.
