This $2.7M Chelsea duplex condo feels like a modern house with a private back garden

Located in the Cheyney condominium at 344 West 23rd Street, this two-bedroom home harkens back to the mid-century modern split-level dwelling, accented by natural wood, steel, and stone, overlooking a tranquil garden. Asking $2,695,000, the home’s 1,500-square-foot interior consists of a lower living and entertaining level, with the private bedroom level–including two full bathrooms–upstairs. 1,000 square feet of quiet, private outdoor space could almost make you forget you’re in the center of one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods.

A sunny, open living space has a lounge area with built-in shelving and recessed lighting. Modern wood-framed windows complement an architectural stairway leading to the home’s second floor. Throughout are updated necessities like central air and in-unit laundry.

The kitchen has everything a 21st-century home chef needs to create and entertain, anchored by a prep and dining island. Adjacent is a more formal dining area that opens onto a tranquil, landscaped, bi-level private garden.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom gets southern light and garden views. A large walk-in closet is accessed through the en-suite bath. A smaller second bedroom is across the hall from another full bath and a washer/dryer. The pet-friendly condominium building offers an elevator, a roof terrace, and a part-time door attendant.
