Description

Set high above the bustle of West Chelsea and the High Line, this sprawling 3,860-square-foot, three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence at 551 West 21st Street is a true urban oasis, defined by sweeping panoramic views of the Hudson River and the Manhattan skyline. With 11-foot ceilings, oak herringbone floors, interior design by MARKZEFF, and bespoke millwork by Foster + Partners, this impeccably crafted home delivers a refined balance of architectural pedigree and modern comfort.

A private elevator opens into a grand central gallery, unfolding into a dramatic 42-foot great room bathed in southern light through oversized windows that highlight expansive Hudson River views. Opposite, a meticulously designed kitchen and dining area anchor the space. The Molteni kitchen is both striking and functional, designed for seamless entertaining with Bianco de Macael marble countertops and backsplashes, natural stained oak cabinetry, a generous island, and deep-set window seating overlooking the river.

The corner primary suite is a tranquil retreat with dual exposures offering open city and river views,a substantial walk-in closet with custom millwork, and a spa-caliber bath featuring radiant heated Luna Black granite floors, a freestanding soaking tub, and a Corian vanity with integrated lighting. Two additional en-suite bedrooms offer exceptional light and open vistas—north toward Hudson Yards and northeast toward The Empire State Building—ensuring privacy and comfort for residents and guests alike.
An elegant study/library with custom built-ins provides flexibility of use, complemented by a refined powder room. An in-unit washer and dryer, bespoke lighting, and Control4 home automation complete the residence.

Completed in 2016, 551 West 21st Street is ideally positioned in the West Chelsea Arts District along Manhattan’s waterfront—just moments from the High Line, Hudson River Park, world-renowned galleries, and acclaimed dining. Residents enjoy a striking double-height, 34-foot attended lobby and a full suite of amenities, including a private gated driveway, on-site parking garage with valet service, state-of-the-art fitness center with spa and sauna, yoga room, residents’ lounge, and a children’s playroom.
