225 W 25Th St

An intimate six-story Art Deco cooperative built in 1938, this Chelsea elevator building contains 31 primarily one-bedroom residences that retain classic prewar character while supporting modern updates. Exteriors present period masonry and a restrained deco lobby; common outdoor areas include a landscaped courtyard, garden and a furnished roof deck. Interiors frequently showcase original details—arched entryways, crown molding, high ceilings, sunken living rooms and refinished hardwood floors—alongside renovated kitchens and windowed bathrooms in many units. Building services and systems emphasize day-to-day convenience: a live-in superintendent, video intercom/security, elevator, on-site laundry and bicycle storage. Additional resident storage is available via sizable basement cages. The co-op’s rules are flexible for buyers: pets are permitted and the board commonly allows co-purchasing, gifting, guarantors and pieds-à-terre. Located on a tree-lined stretch of West 25th Street, the property sits steps from Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Chelsea Market and multiple subway lines, placing residents within easy reach of galleries, parks, and dining in the heart of Chelsea.
