A rare opportunity to create a true custom loft home in the heart of Chelsea, Residence 3A offers exceptional scale, architectural character, and limitless potential. This expansive and highly flexible space serves as the perfect blank canvas inviting you to bring your architect and reimagine a layout tailored entirely to your lifestyle. The current configuration unfolds with a massive living and dining area framed by soaring barrel ceilings and original hardwood floors, delivering the volume and authenticity loft buyers seek. Oversized proportions allow for multiple seating and entertaining zones, while natural light enhances the openness of the space. The galley kitchen offers generous storage and functionality, yet presents an easy opportunity for reconfiguration-whether expanding into a chef's kitchen with an island or opening further into the entertaining area. On the opposite wing, the home transitions into private quarters, highlighted by an immense primary suite filled with natural light. This retreat features a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, offering both comfort and privacy. A second flexible room with its own en-suite full bathroom can effortlessly function as a guest room, creative studio, or home office. A dedicated laundry room with additional overhead storage adds rare convenience for loft living. Located in a well-maintained co-op with a live-in super, the property welcomes pets, pied-à-terres, and sublets, offering flexibility for both primary residents and investors alike. Positioned on one of Chelsea's most desirable blocks, you are moments from the neighborhood's celebrated dining and cultural scene, including Cookshop, COTE Korean Steakhouse, and Pastis, as well as the galleries of West Chelsea and the iconic High Line. Transportation is seamless with the A/C/E, 1/2/3, and F/M subway lines nearby, connecting you quickly to the rest of Manhattan and beyond.
