520 W 23rd St Unit 8AS

Renovated to perfection. Stylish, move in ready Chelsea Gem. Sunlight, style, and private outdoor space in the heart of West Chelsea. Welcome to Residence 8A at The Marais - a beautifully gut renovated, approximately 670 SF one-bedroom with a private balcony and an exceptionally efficient layout that makes full use of every square inch, with no wasted or underutilized space. The living room is generously proportioned and thoughtfully configured, easily accommodating separate areas for lounging, dining, and a proper work-from-home setup. Oversized windows and a glass door flood the space with natural light and open directly to the balcony, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The recent renovation was executed with a clean, modern sensibility and a clear attention to quality and detail. The kitchen features sleek, streamlined cabinetry paired with Italian Krion countertops, offering a refined matte finish that is both durable and elegant. High-end stainless steel appliances include a Liebherr refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and a gas range, along with excellent storage that keeps the space feeling uncluttered and highly functional. The spa-inspired bathroom is finished in classic white tile and designed for comfort, featuring a 28-inch deep soaking tub, rain-style shower, TOTO toilet, modern vanity, and timeless mosaic flooring. The bedroom is calm and well scaled, comfortably fitting a queen or king-sized bed with generous wall space and natural light. All closets throughout the home are fully outfitted with custom ELFA systems, maximizing storage without compromising aesthetics. Additional thoughtful upgrades include oak flooring, updated lighting with dimmers throughout, built-out storage, and a refined, truly move-in-ready finish. The Marais is a well-managed, investor-friendly condop offering rare flexibility: no board interview or approval required, unlimited subletting from day one, and allowances for pieds-a-terre and 1031 exchanges. Amenities include full-time doorman service, a landscaped courtyard, a furnished roof deck with open city views, bike storage, on-site laundry, elevator access, and a pet-friendly policy. Ideally located moments from the High Line, Hudson River Park, Chelsea Piers, and West Chelsea's acclaimed galleries, restaurants, and shopping, this is turnkey living with private outdoor space in one of Manhattan's most dynamic neighborhoods.
