Benny Blanco might be changing his tune on New York City. The acclaimed songwriter and producer, 36, just listed his condo in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood for $3.995 million, Realtor.com reports. We’re guessing the “Single Soon” hitmaker will be spending more time at his West Coast digs, which AD toured just last month. (Come for the candy bar, stay for the customized pizza oven emblazoned with his last name.)
The maestro, whose girlfriend Selena Gomez famously solves crimes in another historic New York residence on her Hulu series Only Murders in the Building, put a contemporary spin on the gut renovated three-bedroom, three-bathroom corner unit. The residence measures 2,154 square feet and is located inside the Chelsea Mercantile, a 19-story building constructed in 1908.
Guests are welcomed by a grand foyer and are ushered down a hallway leading to a bright living and dining area topped by 11-foot ceilings. Natural light streams in through seven-foot-high windows. The chef’s kitchen is open and filled with top-of-the-line appliances, as one might expect from the bona fide foodie and cookbook author.
Tucked behind nine-foot white oak doors is the luxurious primary bedroom, featuring a walk-in closet with ample storage, a windowed desk area for burning the midnight oil, and a spa-like bathroom. A third bedroom, which could easily function as an office, features white oak bookcases and a Murphy bed.
As is the case with many lavish condo buildings, full-service amenities add an extra dose of luxury to this property. They run the gamut from the expected (a 24-hour doorman, garage, and gym) to the ultra-high-end (a 10,000-square-foot landscaped roof deck and valet service.) While that’s all great, the most useful perks might just be the in-unit washer and dryer and the 712-cubic-foot storage room across the hall.
