Yves Chelsea
November 8th, 2007
At fourteen stories, Yves Chelsea doesn’t exactly “tower” over its neighbors. But it does have a unique fantasy-movie appearance. All that glass brings back memories of the castle in The NeverEnding Story. But is life here like a fantasy movie, too?
Yves offers one, two and three bedroom residences for 41 families. Many units offer landscaped outdoor space, which are utilized through building setbacks. On a warm, moonlit night, this kind of sanctuary can be like taking a temporary trip to heaven. All units offer floor-to-ceiling windows, and some homes without terraces provide a small balcony for thinking smaller thoughts. American walnut hardwood flooring offers simple beauty, while the Bosch washer and dryer add convenience.
In addition to the outdoor space, owners here revel in the expansive layouts and great city views. The units have many other decor and design perks, including all-glass cabinets and countertops in the kitchen, along with a Miele oven and a storage area for that irreplaceable vintage wine. Residents of Yves Chelsea have access to the Abigail Michaels Concierge Service, which can help then with just about any travel or dining excursion. Or, if they prefer to work harder for their rewards, Yves’s health center is just a short jaunt away. This facility is complete with a pool, sauna and treatment room, A freestanding bath awaits the weary but well-worked resident.
Yves is located at 127 Seventh Avenue, in the heart of Chelsea, home and playground to many of the world’s up-and-coming artists. Residents have no shortage of things to do around “town,” from taking the kids to the park, to visiting one of the many fine eateries.
One-bedroom units range from 701-937 square feet, not including outdoor space. Larger two and three-bedroom homes have a considerably wider range, from 1,090 square feet to 2,367 square feet, in addition to outdoor space that ranges from the very small 50 square foot balcony to the 520 square foot landscaped outdoor terrace.
Once the site of a horse stable, the land beneath Yves has a lot of history. Late paperwork was all that kept this lot from becoming a historical landmark. Many people will see this fact as a great way to expect their property value to increase in the future. For now, units are priced at as little as $950,000 to as much as $6.95 million.
