Chelsea open houses to check out this weekend

Welcome to the weekly Open House Tour, because who doesn't love a little real estate gawking? This time around, we're looking at what's on the market in Chelsea.

Halstead.

↑ First up is this alcove studio on West 16th Street, which has undergone a chic transformation. Classic touches like beamed ceilings and French doors mix with a more contemporary open kitchen and revamped bathroom with marble floors. The asking price is $700,000. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, July 23 (1 to 2 p.m.)

Keller Williams NYC.

↑ This space (billed as a 1.5 bedroom), asking $850,000, spans just 562 square feet but feels slightly larger thanks to its high ceilings. It’s rather plain, and per the listing description, the dining room could be converted into a second bedroom or a home office. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, July 23 (12:30 to 2 p.m.)

Corcoran.

↑ For $845,000, there’s this prewar one-bedroom with a sunken living room and architectural details that include arched entryways and built-in shelving. Other features include hardwood floors, high ceilings, a kitchen with open shelves, a washer/dryer, and decent closet space. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, July 23 (noon to 1:30 p.m.)

Triplemint.

↑ If you’re looking to splurge, there’s this rather plain one-bedroom that’s asking a steep $1.075 million. The apartment isn’t much of a looker but it does have location going for it—it’s less than a block away from the High Line. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, July 23 (12:30 to 1:30 p.m.)

↑ Speaking of splurges, this duplex on west 23rd Street certainly isn’t budget-minded—it’s going for $1.6 million—but it’s got plenty of space, along with a truly lovely terrace that’s basically an extension of the apartment’s sole bedroom. It has two bathrooms, a wood-burning fireplace in the kitchen, and what looks like a good amount of storage space. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, July 23 (2 to 3:30 p.m.)
