3 Bedroom Apartment with Incredible Design in West Chelsea

Some homes just have a way of slowing you down the moment you walk in. This three bedroom apartment at 520 West 28th Street in West Chelsea absolutely does that. It is one of those places that even New Yorkers notice because the building itself looks more like a piece of art than just another luxury apartment block. All those flowing metal lines and the way it curves makes you stop and look up from the street. Even if you have lived in Manhattan for ages, you end up glancing at it every time you walk past. People around the neighborhood definitely know it. They call it the Zaha Hadid Building for a reason.

Stepping into the lobby for the first time, I honestly just paused for a second to take in the giant sculpted wall. It feels less like an entrance and more like finding yourself in a gallery. The building does not pack in hundreds of homes either and when you have spent any time in New York you soon realize that is not just a talking point. It is quieter, more private, and you feel it right away. Up in the apartment you are looking at almost three thousand square feet which to me always just feels like a treat in this city. But it is not cold or echoey. There is something inviting about the space and the way it is laid out.

You walk into a living area where a dividing wall gives you this double living room. Light pours in and the big windows pull you towards the balcony which is one of those spots where it is easy to imagine having your morning coffee or gathering around with friends. I can see people just gravitating there, catching up without even thinking about their phones. The formal dining area sits alongside the living space but nothing is boxed in. There is room to breathe and everything kind of floats together in a way that is relaxed rather than stiff.

Step outside and those classic Manhattan views open up. You do not ever really get tired of them. Looking out, you see the city moving along below but it just feels calm from up here. On the other side of the wall is a family room that, if you are like me, probably becomes the spot to kick off your shoes and binge a show on a lazy weekend. The open kitchen is something else. Zaha Hadid teamed up with Boffi to design it and you can tell. Not just another high end kitchen where everything looks pretty but is a pain to use. Here, it is all about clean lines but also real function. There is a tucked away fridge, wine cooler, and plenty of counter space in case you actually do cook a bit. Sometimes you just end up hanging around the island, having a chat.

All three bedrooms are en-suite, set along one side of the apartment so everyone gets their own space but the flow still works. The master suite has its own balcony which always feels a little bit special. I have stood out there with a coffee, just watching morning light hit the skyline. The full height windows twist a little in every room which is classic Zaha Hadid and gives you different angles on the city outside. If you are into art, there is even a custom sculpture in one of the living rooms that honestly grabs your attention no matter how many times you walk by it.

People talk a lot about lifestyle in Manhattan and this building really does a bit more. There is a skylit pool so you can actually swim in winter without leaving home, a private cinema for movie nights, a bright gym, and even a lounge with a big terrace where you sometimes see neighbors chatting or just watching the sunset. The High Line is just down the road and early mornings you might see dog walkers or runners out there. Coffee shops are close enough that you never need to search for your caffeine fix. Plus with private parking and a proper concierge here it all just works with very little stress.

Every corner of this West Chelsea apartment just feels thought out and welcoming. But reading about it is one thing. Standing inside with those views and the quiet is something else. If you are even thinking this could be home, the best thing is just to come and see it yourself. If you want a look or just have questions, let me know anytime.
