## Property Overview

Conveniently located between 7th and 8th Avenues on a charming, prime central Chelsea block, this beautifully designed and fully furnished, professionally renovated one-bedroom home with a wood-burning fireplace features the ultimate prize: a large, private garden.

Enter this boutique-scaled, pre-war building from the quiet, tree-lined street via an outstanding tech-based virtual doorman. Upon entering the apartment, you are immediately struck by the rich hardwood floors that gleam in the light under expansive 10-foot ceilings, with exposed beams and a wall of exposed brick that accent the focal point: a working wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, marble counters, a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, a Bertazzoni range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a microwave. A hallway leads to the bedroom and renovated bathroom, enhanced by numerous closets

The unit is outfitted with a Daikin mini-split unit that provides central heating and air-conditioning year-round, as well as integrated ceiling JBL speakers. This serene home faces the back of the building, delivering a uniquely restorative environment in the heart of Manhattan

An oversized storage unit in the basement at no additional cost is a bonus. Building amenities include laundry on site, a bicycle room, an elevator, storage, and a part-time superintendent.

This well-managed pre-war co-op building has been recently renovated with a fresh, industrial-chic design. Located almost equidistant to Union Square and Madison Square Park to the East and the Highline, Hudson River Park, Chelsea Market, and the West Chelsea Art Gallery District to the West, not to mention some of New York’s finest restaurants, art galleries, and shopping, including supermarkets such as Whole Foods and Trader Joes.  This location is a beneficiary of multiple neighborhoods:  Chelsea, Flatiron District, Nomad, West Chelsea, Greenwich Village, The West Village, Hudson Yards and the Meatpacking District.

Located near major transportation lines, and just two blocks to the 1/C/E subways at the 7th & 8th avenue stations, the F/M at the 6th Ave station is close by too.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

5 apartments at 221 West 21st Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $520,200 in February 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1A (Apartment) | 1 | — | $520,200 | — | February 13, 2026 | City record · MLS |
| 3A (Apartment) | Studio | 629 | $785,000 | $1,248/ft² | November 25, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 4B (Apartment) | Studio | 420 | $670,000 | $1,595/ft² | March 19, 2024 | City record |
| 2D (Apartment) | Studio | — | $598,000 | — | July 6, 2023 | City record · MLS |
| 1C (Apartment) | — | — | $965,000 | — | January 4, 2022 | City record |

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 co-op one-bedroom sales in Chelsea is $865,513, based on 103 sales between September 2024 and June 2026. This home is asking $975,000, $109,487 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $717,500 and $997,000.

- **Median closed price**: $865,513
- **Middle half**: $717,500 – $997,000
- **Based on**: 103 co-op one-bedroom sales in Chelsea
- **Period**: September 2024 – June 2026

Square footage is recorded for only 40 of these 103 sales (39%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest.

Across the 92 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.4% of what it originally asked. 75% of them closed below the original ask.

This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Chelsea instead.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 96.4% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 75% of 92 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 71 days (about 10 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 80 days (about 11 weeks)

Across the 92 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.4% of what it originally asked. 75% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 71 days (about 10 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 94 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 80 days (about 11 weeks), based on the 93 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that.

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 103 co-op one-bedroom sales in Chelsea, September 2024 – June 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median sold price for co-op one-bedroom sales in Chelsea, 2016 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth.

| Year | Median sold price | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2016 | $883,750 | 12 |
| 2017 | $900,000 | 53 |
| 2018 | $857,500 | 54 |
| 2019 | $808,500 | 43 |
| 2020 | $835,000 | 32 |
| 2021 | $806,850 | 90 |
| 2022 | $865,000 | 67 |
| 2023 | $856,250 | 52 |
| 2024 | $854,250 | 52 |
| 2025 | $850,000 | 55 |
| 2026 | $895,000 | 31 |

This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Chelsea instead.

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.
