QUIET ART-DECO GEM. Surround yourself with quiet serenity in this versatile studio space with dining gallery, living room, kitchen, dressing room and bath. The classic feature of the era, the over-sized step down living room with elegant decorative railings, welcomes family and friends. A full suite of living room furniture will fit in this expansive area while a murphy bed cabinet with closets fits neatly on the back wall. Be charmed by the delightful original architectural details, newly refinished oak floors and freshly painted ceilings and walls. Near the entrance hall is the proper dining foyer for dinner parties with friends. This pre-war gem's large dressing room has an additional roomy closet. From there enter into the restored bathroom with newly refinished tub, classic mint condition tiles, and original bakelite door knob. The good-sized older kitchen with small window can be opened to create a pass through window to the living room. Adding to the quality of life is the quiet roof deck with beautiful plantings and semi-private spaces for dining al fresco with the wide open city views. Outside your front door is bustling Chelsea with the spectacular Highline Park, Chelsea Pier Sports Center, new restaurants, cafes and multiple transportation lines. The Kensington House was designed by Emery Roth in 1937 and features a terrazzo-floored lobby and restored original amber and blue tiles that sparkle around the entranceway. The prime full-service co-operative has a central laundry room, bike room, wait-listed storage, live-in super, and is pet friendly. Sublets allowed after 1 year. New double-paned windows are being installed and there is an assessment of $90.37 per month through July 2021. Gifting is allowed. Call today for your viewing appointment.
