Description
Enter to a massive 36-foot wide Great Room with soaring ceilings, reclaimed wide-board floors, a dramatic brick decorative fireplace and bright southern exposures through enormous bay windows. Soothing lime-washed plaster walls add character to the room and create a warm and inviting atmosphere in which to relax and entertain. The chic European-style kitchen is cleverly concealed behind pocket doors and offers deep countertops, abundant custom-milled cabinetry and premium Miele, SubZero and Gaggenau appliances. Beyond the public space, dual pocket doors with industrial glass inserts slide open to reveal the impressive primary bedroom, a pin-drop quiet sanctuary illuminated by large north-facing windows and featuring a separate sitting area, decorative fireplace, custom bookshelves and abundant built-ins and storage throughout. The oversized windowed bathroom is a study in old world charm with its vintage wainscoting, classic hexagon tiled floors, separate W/C and private rainshower room. The simple time-worn materials used throughout the renovation reflect the organic beauty of nature and exude a sense of humble elegance and quiet serenity. Additional amenities include multi zoned central air-conditioning, a Miele washer-dryer, custom lighting on dimmers and brand new double-glazed windows throughout.
Built in 1880 and converted to a residential cooperative in the 1970's, the historic 5-unit walk-up building is self-managed and offers a beautifully restored facade and private basement storage. The loft itself has a storied past and was previously owned by one of Downtown's most renowned underground performance artists whose legendary weekly events and salons launched the careers of some of New York's most ground-breaking avant garde artists, poets and musicians. The neighborhood still maintains that creative energy with a multitude of progressive art galleries, interesting boutiques, cafes, restaurants and a sense of urban grit that defines the very essence of Downtown living.
Don't miss this opportunity to live in an intelligently designed home with all of the provenance and patina of a bygone era!
