## Property Overview

Perfectly laid-out large 1-Bedroom loft with extra-large home office and 2 full bathrooms

Perched inside one of Chelsea's most storied condominium conversions, Residence 4J offers a rare blend of prewar-scaled proportions, thoughtfully renovated interiors, and soaring ceilings.

Step through the entry into a welcoming foyer with a large front hall closet. To the east, an extra-large living and dining room is wrapped in elegant wainscoting and paneled millwork, and anchored by a thoughtfully built-in fireplace. Oversized windows frame open city views and flood the space with light, while rich hardwood floors run throughout.

The adjacent chef's kitchen is a showpiece: a marble island seats three beneath a trio of gleaming pendant lights, framed by crisp white shaker cabinetry, a designer glass tile backsplash, and a suite of high-end stainless appliances, including a professional range. An in-unit washer/dryer and dishwasher add everyday convenience.

The primary bedroom is a serene retreat with a generous walk-in closet and an ensuite bath featuring a double vanity, soaking tub, and glass-enclosed shower finished in warm stone-look tile.

To the west side of the apartment is an extra-large, flexible room easily used as a home theater, nursery, home office, or second sleeping space. The room has a large closet, individually controlled heat/AC, and an ensuite bathroom that also opens to the hallway for easy access for guests.

The Chelsea Mercantile is a full-service condominium set within a converted 1920s warehouse, offering 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a live-in superintendent, a fitness center, and a new, spectacular landscaped roof deck with sweeping skyline and river views, multiple lounge and dining areas, a pergola-covered dining pavilion, and grilling stations — perfect for entertaining above the city. A Whole Foods Market occupies the ground floor.

All measurements are approximate and may vary slightly.

Note: There is a monthly assessment of $312.24

Showing the 40 most recent of 76 recorded sales in this period.

Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable two-bedroom sales at The Chelsea Mercantile is $2,365,000, based on 26 sales between September 2021 and May 2026. This home is asking $2,350,000, $15,000 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $2,250,000 and $2,618,750.

- **Median closed price**: $2,365,000
- **Middle half**: $2,250,000 – $2,618,750
- **Based on**: 26 two-bedroom sales at The Chelsea Mercantile
- **Period**: September 2021 – May 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,565/ft²

Across the 18 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 90.8% of what it originally asked. 94% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 90.8% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 94% of 18 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 150 days (about 21 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 60 days (about 9 weeks)

Across the 18 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 90.8% of what it originally asked. 94% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 150 days (about 21 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 25 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 60 days (about 9 weeks), based on the 25 with both dates recorded.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Based on 26 two-bedroom sales at The Chelsea Mercantile, September 2021 – May 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median price per square foot for sales at The Chelsea Mercantile, 2017 to 2026. Price per square foot is used rather than sale price so the line follows the market rather than whichever apartments happened to change hands that year.

| Year | Median $/ft² | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2017 | $1,733/ft² | 17 |
| 2018 | $1,651/ft² | 9 |
| 2019 | $1,744/ft² | 10 |
| 2020 | $1,625/ft² | 4 (thin) |
| 2021 | $1,456/ft² | 15 |
| 2022 | $1,680/ft² | 18 |
| 2023 | $1,692/ft² | 10 |
| 2024 | $1,444/ft² | 12 |
| 2025 | $1,550/ft² | 18 |
| 2026 | $1,536/ft² | 9 |

Years marked "thin" rest on fewer than 5 sales, where a single unusual apartment moves the median a long way. Read those points as the small samples they are rather than as the market turning.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
