Rare Top-Floor Chelsea One-Bedroom with Expansive Private Terrace
Rarely available, top-floor one-bedroom with exceptional private outdoor space in a full-time doorman building on one of Chelsea's most picturesque, tree-lined residential blocks.
Located on the eighth and top floor of 401 West 22nd Street, this coveted C-line residence offers a highly functional layout, generous room proportions, excellent separation between the living and sleeping areas, and an expansive private terrace extending alongside nearly the entire apartment. With no residence above, the home provides the privacy of a true top-floor settinga particularly rare offering in prime Chelsea.
A proper entry foyer creates a gracious sense of arrival and includes convenient coat and storage space. Beyond the foyer, the approximately 13'0" x 17'2" living and dining room offers ample flexibility for distinct seating, dining, entertaining, and work-from-home areas without compromising the flow of the space. A long wall of windows keeps the terrace in view and creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The private terrace is the defining feature of the residence. Its unusually long and usable footprint provides room to create multiple outdoor zones, including dining, lounging, container gardening, and entertaining. Whether enjoyed for morning coffee, dinner outdoors, or as a private urban retreat, this substantial terrace functions like an additional room and is a true rarity for a Chelsea one-bedroom.
The separate, windowed kitchen is efficiently arranged with generous counter and cabinet space and is conveniently positioned beside the dining area. The layout allows the kitchen to remain distinct from the main living room while still feeling connected to the entertaining space.
Set at the opposite end of the apartment, the well-proportioned bedroom measures approximately 10'3" x 12'2" and is thoughtfully separated from the main living area for added privacy. The bedroom includes dedicated closet storage, while additional closets near the foyer and bedroom hall provide practical storage throughout the residence.
The full bathroom features a bathtub and is positioned off the hallway, allowing it to remain easily accessible without opening directly into either the bedroom or living room.
Situated on a classic tree-lined stretch of West 22nd Street near Ninth Avenue, this residence offers a peaceful residential setting in the heart of prime Chelsea. The High Line, Chelsea's renowned galleries, neighborhood restaurants and cafes, Chelsea Market, Hudson River Park, shopping, and multiple transportation options are all conveniently nearby. Full-time doorman service adds ease and convenience to everyday living.
Top-floor one-bedrooms with private outdoor space of this scale are seldom offered. This is a rare opportunity to secure a distinctive Chelsea home with a remarkable terrace, gracious proportions, a full-time doorman, and an exceptional location.
