with wind protection on three sides. this terrace is very usable, however the protection comes at a cost, there is no outstanding vie to enjoy.
About
nestled at the crossroads of chelsea, the flatiron district, union square, and greenwich village, this impeccably designed 2-3 bedroom condominium offers a rare blend of space, light, and tranquility—highlighted by a spectacular private terrace.
step into a gracious entry foyer that leads seamlessly into the west-facing living and dining areas, where oversized windows frame stunning views of a lush, landscaped terrace. this unique set-back terrace feels like an extension of your living space, creating a private outdoor retreat high above the city’s energy—a perfect sanctuary to relax and recharge.
the chef’s kitchen is thoughtfully positioned as the heart of the home, offering an ideal space for both intimate dinners and lively gatherings. generously proportioned rooms throughout provide a sense of scale and comfort that is increasingly rare to find.
in the bedroom wing, the primary suite is a serene escape, complete with a spa-like five-fixture limestone bath and a dual vanity. a second bedroom, full second bath, ample storage, and the flexibility to create a third bedroom ensure that this home adapts to your needs without compromise.
perched on a high floor of the lyla, a boutique condominium built in 2007, this well-maintained residence benefits from a part-time doorman, 24-hour virtual doorman, bike storage, and common outdoor space. the building’s recently renovated elevator and lobby set a stylish tone, with refreshed hallways scheduled for completion in the coming months (all fully paid for by the seller).
located moments from union square, madison square park, the chelsea arts district, eataly, the high line, the new whitney, and some of the city’s best dining and shopping, this home is also incredibly convenient to the path trains and multiple subway lines (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, n, q, r, l, and f).
this is a rare opportunity to own a sophisticated urban retreat in one of manhattan’s most vibrant and sought-after neighborhoods.
the layout and size of this terrace is excellent, but the terrace is far less enjoyable than the layout and size would suggest, as the building next door has robbed the widest part of its view.

the distant skyline views from the lower east side penthouses are epic, and this one follows that pattern. the space is there to be practical, but little has been done so far to make it welcoming.

accessibility of the main terrace directly often family room gives it the status of the direct living terrace and it is very useful and a smart vegetation offers a good level of privacy. the roof access terrace will undoubtedly have the better views, but it's it's access might make it less frequently used. used.
