Description

Presenting 525 West 22nd Street, 3AF, a rare combination loft spanning nearly 6,000 square feet in The Spears Building, one of West Chelsea’s original full-service condominium buildings. Combining two lofts to create the largest home in the building, Residence 3AF offers 5 true bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and multiple versatile spaces to customize as your own. High ceilings, original details, and three generous exposures - including views of The High Line - make this a unique opportunity for the buyer seeking volume, light, and character. The apartment highlights the rich industrial history of the building with exposed brick, brushed concrete and brick framed large windows, and high ceilings throughout.

Keen updates, such as central air conditioning and refinished hardwood floors, were completed without disrupting the high ceilings or marring the storied character. Through a proper foyer, and one of two entrances, the great room spans over 39 by 20 feet with a wood burning fireplace and sunny south exposure. The oversized chef’s kitchen features a white marble island, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, including a Viking range/oven and a double door Sub Zero fridge. Abutting the kitchen is an enormous pantry room with a wine fridge and additional prep counter space, in addition to significant built-in storage.

Adjacent to the kitchen you’ll find the three flexible spaces currently configured as a semi-enclosed den area, a soundproofed recording studio, and a windowed study. A grand 50-foot gallery leads to the second wing of the home, anchored by the massive, 30’ by 30’ living room with a second wood-burning fireplace and sunlit northern views across The High Line Park. There is also a separate entrance for this wing of the home.

On the northwest corner, the principal suite is oversized and includes both a walk-in closet and a windowed dressing room, ample space for the most expansive wardrobe. Past the vanity area, the ensuite bathroom includes dual sinks, a soaking tub and separate double-wide shower. Two additional bedrooms, each with a corresponding full bathroom and large closets, plus a large linen closet, flank the primary. The east wing has two additional true bedrooms, each with large closets, that share the fourth full bathroom.

The laundry room, a flexible lounge or study space, and a media room/home theater complete this wing of the loft. Building amenities include a doorman, a superintendent, a furnished roof-deck, storage units and bike storage. Located in the heart of the West Chelsea Gallery District, West 22nd Street is a serene block moments from The High Line Park, Hudson River Park and just a short distance to Hudson Yards. Taxes represent the amount after the NYC co-op/condo abatement. There is an assessment of $3,465/mo through March 2025.
