The inspirational shoe designer Jeffrey Campbell just purchased a 3,700 square foot loft at 213 West 23rd Street. The unit includes three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms.
Campbell’s New Home
This particular unit has been on the market for quite some time. The previous owners have been trying to move the property since 2007. However, on May 2015, the property was finally relisted for sale for $5.9 million.
Just over a year later, the property was able to secure a buyer after dropping the listing price by roughly $800,000, which is a significant reduction. Despite the huge decrease, the property finally did sell. The monthly taxes will run about $2,250 per month or $27,000 per year.
The apartment has fifteen-foot ceilings throughout as well as exposed brick walls and concrete floors. Only accessible via ladder, Campbell’s new home also features a unique 600 bottle wine storage area. In general, the property seems very spacious; the high ceilings along with the polished concrete floors help to add depth to the rooms making the 3,700 square foot apartment seem even bigger than it already is.
213 West 23rd Street
This prewar building is in the center of Chelsea and was first built in 1900. Spread out across ten floors, 213 W 23rd is pet-friendly, has a doorman, and includes elevator access.
The building is a part of Chelsea’s historic YMCA building and near just about everything great that Chelsea has to offer. Featuring the West Chelsea Gallery District, The High Line, the Chelsea Piers, and of course, a Whole Foods Market, Campbell doesn’t have to go far for any entertainment.
Combine this with the endless amount of retail shops and restaurants in the area, and it is no wonder why so many people like to call Chelsea home.
