Classic Prewar Grandeur, Reimagined for Modern Chelsea Living Welcome to 261 West 22nd Street — a rare chance to own the largest home in a beautifully maintained Chelsea building, where exceptional space, style, and value come together in a thoughtfully updated residence. You’ll fall in love with the classic prewar elegance, beautifully reimagined for modern Manhattan living. Nestled on a picturesque tree-lined block, this expansive combination unit feels like a true home in the heart of the city. Inside, a gracious layout offers an oversized dining room perfect for entertaining, a cozy den, and French doors that create an effortless flow between spaces. Step inside and leave the bustle behind as you arrive at a peaceful, light-filled residence — a welcome reward in this quiet, well-kept building. Three generously sized bedrooms are complemented by a versatile home office. For those seeking even more functionality, the alternate floor plan shows potential to create a fourth bedroom or expand the primary bath into a more luxurious en-suite. The home office could also flex as a fifth bedroom. Three full baths feature chic finishes, including subway tile, Kelly Wearstler wallpaper, and updated vanities. The primary suite is functional and inviting, featuring a spa-like, gut-renovated bath with a luxurious stand-up shower and a thoughtful, easeful layout. From 2017 to 2020, the home underwent extensive renovations — including new hardwood oak floors, expanded closets, custom built-ins, fresh paint, and other refined upgrades — blending original 1917 detail with modern sophistication. Plumbing and electrical in the addition portion were deliberately left untouched, offering built-in flexibility to convert the property back into two separate apartments. The living room features a stylish Hearth Cabinet ethanol fireplace, and the sleek chef’s kitchen is outfitted with custom cabinetry, Caesarstone counters, a Viking range, premium appliances, and a Bosch dishwasher. A Bosch washer and dryer are also conveniently in-unit. Other highlights include soaring 9’2” ceilings, generous closet space, and picture windows ushering in soft northern light. Enjoy access to a massive, landscaped roof deck with views of the Empire State Building and World Trade Center, complete with an outdoor kitchen and multiple lounge areas that feel like an extension of your home. Two oversized, deeded storage units provide practical space for gear or seasonal items. Additional amenities include a common area for bike storage and a pet-friendly, resident-managed co-op. Ideally located near top restaurants, parks, nightlife, and transit — 261 West 22nd Street is a truly special opportunity in Chelsea.
