## Property Overview

Built circa 1830, this 23-foot-wide Federal townhouse sits on a gracious 25' x 108' lot with a south-facing garden and is recognized as the oldest dwelling within the Chelsea Historic District. In need of a complete gut renovation, the property presents a unique opportunity to create a custom residence or income-producing asset in one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods. Approvals from the Landmark Preservation Commission and the New York City Department of Buildings are already in place, making this a shovel-ready site that saves substantial costs and time.

 Approvals also allow for the enclosure of the side yard, expanding the home to the full 25-foot width of the lot and increasing the interior square footage to almost 9,000 Sq.Ft. across six levels. The expansion includes a full-lot excavation for a lower cellar level, a vertical expansion, and a rear yard expansion making the property over 60'-deep. The approved plans retain the large front forecourt of approximately 10 feet along with a gracious stoop entry to the Parlor level.

 Located between Ninth and Tenth Avenues directly across from the historic grounds of the General Theological Seminary, the property sits on one of Chelsea's most picturesque blocks. Just moments from the High Line, renowned restaurants, shopping, and multiple transportation options, it offers an exceptional redevelopment opportunity in a prime Chelsea location.

Based on house sales in Chelsea with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric.

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.

Sales data through September 2026.

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.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1007170046. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
