EXPANSIVE FLEXIBLE LOFT w/COVETED TOP FLOOR 5-WINDOW RUN BIG ROOMS BIG DESIGNER KITCHEN BIG DESIGNER BATH WASHER/DRYER PET & PIED-A-TERRE FRIENDLY GIFTING, GUARANTORS & CO-PURCHASES WELCOME (case by case) As you stroll along the Chelsea Flower District and look up, you'll see some remarkable, historical architecture. Inside one of the more attractive Pre-War buildings is a boutique residential address that has proudly been a part of this famous street since 1909. The handsome run of windows that graces the top floor -- floor 7 -- are among the iconic details that characterize the beautiful building. This rare, top-floor loft home has a prime perch on floor 7, and its exposure through its dramatic run of oversized windows brings this move-in residence an extraordinary bit of extra: extra character, extra personality, extra flair. A keyed-off elevator brings you to a small hallway with only two residences on the landing. When you enter this front facing home, you'll feel the good vibes. Key themes here are light, warmth, and authenticity and this flexible, well-scaled residence is a standout. Tin ceilings soar 9'-3" above you, underfoot are attractive wood floors, and all around you are style and comfort. The lofty living room is a welcoming space featuring the treasured 5-window run, and offering room for a dining space. Flowing openly to the handsome, oversized, designer kitchen, this feel-good home is built for easy-living and entertaining a perfect balance of form and function practicality and beauty. With an over-scaled dining island, impressive cabinet and counter space, and top-shelf, integrated, stainless appliances by Miele, LG and Blomberg, this heart-of-the-home, designer kitchen (by Denmark's Norm) is a culinary dream space. (Flexible and versatile, some in this line carve a bedroom out of this L-shaped living area.) The big back half of this expansive home is currently configured as a king-sized sleeping space, and offers tons of custom closets (featuring sensored lighting and pull-out shoe trays and drawers). En suite here is a handsome, well-scaled, bath. The big architect-designed and renovated bathroom boasts floor-to-ceiling, rectified porcelain tiles, an impressive floating vanity, a big Duravit soaking tub/rain shower with top-shelf Cross fixtures, and a Starck Senso-wash wall-hung toilet. Rounding out this lofted residence are a washer/dryer and wiring for Sonos, Fios, and hi-fi. With a prime perch in its pet-friendly, boutique cooperative, and with a supreme location among the lush blooms and foliage of the prized Flower District, this highest-floor hero home has it all. With deeded private storage (4' 7'), bike storage, a full time Super, and the benefits of the building's remote-entry video intercom system, life here is easy, convenient, and fun. A stone's throw from most every downtown cultural, dining, shopping, culinary, entertainment, hospitality, and fitness destination, this happy home's location comes with bragging rights: Madison Square Park, the Highline, and several "pocket parks," are nearby not to mention a "foodies" haven (NoMad, Ace Hotel, Ritz-Carlton, Feroce, Eataly, L'Amico, etc., etc. plus Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Fairway, and Gristedes) and a plethora of major transportation options (1/2/3/, A/C/E, B/D/F/M, N/R/Q/W, 4/5/6, AMTRAK, LIRR & PATH trains). If the home you seek needs to have history, elegance, comfort, and an expansive flexibility for all of your growing needs, then look no further.
