Welcome to Apartment 6I at 405 West 23rd Street. This is the most beautifully conceived alcove studio at London Terrace Towers, and a true testament to what thoughtful design can do with space.

Perfectly balancing prewar character with a fresh, designer renovation, Residence 6I is a reimagined alcove studio that lives far larger than its footprint.

The expansive living room is ancho red by rich hardwood floors, oversized windows, and a stunning crystal chandelier, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for everyday living or entertaining. A dedicated dining area sits just off the open kitchen, while the custom sleeping alcove feels tucked away and private, framed by elegant drapery and designer wallpaper to create the feel of a true bedroom.

The renovated windowed kitchen has been finished with marble countertops, custom cabinetry, and a suite of premium appliances, including a Viking gas range with Miele vent hood, Bosch dishwasher, Smeg refrigerator, and Axor faucet. The spa-like bath features timeless marble, a sleek black stone vanity, a glass-enclosed porcelain soaking tub and shower , Robern medicine cabinet , Toto toilet, and Hansgrohe fixtures and original black-and-white floor tiles .

The layout has been thoughtfully red e s i gn ed to maximize storage, creating an oversized walk-in closet outfitted with the Elfa system-an exceptional rarity in studio apartments. Every inch of the home has been curated with intention, from the custom built-ins and generous storage to the sophisticated finishes and flexible layout. Whether you’re looking for a stylish primary residence, pied-à-terre, or first home in the city, 6I is completely move -in ready.

Located within the legendary London Terrace Towers, residents enjoy the conveniences of a full-service, prewar cooperative with a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, gorgeous landscaped roof deck with views of Manhattan and the Hudson River, bike storage, central laundry, and access to the renowned half Olympic-sized indoor heated pool, steam rooms, saunas, and fitness center operated by The Wright Fit (membership fee applies). The buildin g permits pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, guarantors, gifting, and one-year sublets after ownership requirements, subject to board approval.

Set in the heart of West Chelsea, just moments from the High Line, Hudson River Park, Chelsea Piers, world-class galleries, and some of downtown’s best restaurants and boutiques, this is an opportunity to own a thoughtfully designed home in one of Manhattan’s most coveted neighborhoods.
