Apartment 9R is a pristine 2-bedroom 2-bathroom loft (with potential for an additional home office) that seamlessly blends classic elegance and modern loft living. The oversized 2,269 sq. ft. home at the renowned Chelsea Mercantile, a sought-after condominium with incredible history, wonderful amenities, and an unbeatable location, is not to be missed. Soaring 11-ft beamed ceilings, natural white oak floors, wall-to-wall windows, and a large utility room which could be converted into a home office, set this apartment apart from the rest. The courtyard-facing western exposure ensures that the apartment is bright and pin-drop quiet. You enter the apartment through a spacious foyer which flows into an expansive 38' x 21' open-concept living room, dining room and large chef's kitchen. The kitchen was just updated with pristine quartz countertops and backsplash and features a very large island which is perfect for preparing gourmet meals and entertaining friends and family. Two very large bedrooms share a four-piece bathroom which could be closed off to create a proper primary bedroom with a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom, plus a second expansive bedroom with a walk-in closet. A large 13' x 8' utility room allows the opportunity to create a home office if one desires. The Chelsea Mercantile is made up of four contiguous buildings and was the former headquarters of The National Cloak and Suit Company. The sought-after luxury condominium building offers residents 24-hour door attendants, concierge, valet service, on-site parking, an on-site Whole Foods, a gym, a children's playroom, and a sprawling rooftop deck with open city views. There are numerous restaurants, cafes, bars, and shops nearby, and the High Line, Chelsea Market, and Madison Square Park are all a few blocks away. Nearby subway lines include the 1/F/M/C/E. Pets are welcome. NOTE: * The residence comes with a large 5' x 5' x 8' private storage locker. * Taxes listed are for primary residence use. Non-primary/investor taxes are $2,570/month.
