405 West 23rd Street

Perched atop iconic London Terrace Towers in the heart of West Chelsea, this exceptional penthouse aerie offers a rare combination of prewar character, contemporary luxury, and extraordinary outdoor living. The residence features soaring ceilings, two bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, and has been meticulously renovated with museum-quality craftsmanship throughout. Impeccable custom millwork provides thoughtfully concealed storage at every turn, while automated electric blinds and the convenience of an in-unit washer/dryer seamlessly enhance both comfort and functionality. Flanked by expansive terraces facing north, south, east, and west, the home enjoys sweeping open city and water views stretching from the Empire State Building to One World Trade Center and beyond. Heroically scaled steel casement windows flood the space with natural light and elegantly frame its iconic skyline vistas while simultaneously enhancing this unique indoor-outdoor lifestyle offering high above one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods. While spectacular as a standalone home, the opportunity becomes even more remarkable with the potential to acquire the only other apartment on the floor. Designed by the renowned architectural firm Farrar & Watmough and completed in 1930, London Terrace Towers is one of Chelsea’s most distinguished prewar cooperatives. Residents enjoy an exceptional suite of amenities, including a state-of-the-art fitness center, heated indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room, beautifully landscaped private gardens, rooftop deck, bicycle storage, laundry facilities, and an on-site parking garage. Ideally positioned adjacent to the High Line and moments from Chelsea’s world-renowned galleries, acclaimed restaurants, cultural institutions, theater offerings, and countless transportation options, this remarkable penthouse presents a rare opportunity to own a meticulously crafted home with iconic views, expansive terraces, and limitless potential.
