650 6th Avenue #5E

This 2 bed, 2 bath loft-style condominium masterfully blends pre-war details with crisp, modern finishes. The Cammeyer is a landmarked architectural icon – a former department store built in 1892 – along the historic Ladies Mile District in Flatiron. It was converted to condos in 2007. The apartment features 10' high ceilings and 7' tall western-facing windows, which flood the space with soft, diffused light. A lovely wrought-iron Juliette balcony provides architectural interest and allows for outdoor plantings. Original cast-iron columns have been preserved and are skillfully incorporated into the condo plan. The hardwood floors are solid, bleached maple that coordinate beautifully with custom-built teak casework that has been introduced into the space. The closets have all been built-out with custom drawers and shelving, including a spacious walk-in closet in the primary bedroom suite. The en suite primary bath features a double vanity, deep soaking tub and spacious shower. The second bathroom boasts a massive rain shower with clerestory windows. Bathroom fixtures are by Waterworks and Duravit. The second bedroom incorporates two glass pocket doors for ideal circulation of light and space, and is large enough to accommodate both a sleeping area and a home office work space. The Poggenpohl kitchen features off-white lacquer faces that smartly conceal all appliances. Appliances have been upgraded: dishwasher, electric oven, and gas cooktop are all by Miele. The refrigerator is by Sub-Zero. The kitchen sink faucet has been fitted with a filtered water dispenser. The countertops and backsplashes have been upgraded with thin-edged off-white Corian that seamlessly integrate a Corian kitchen sink with a garbage disposal. The current owner is an art collector, only the second owner of this residence, and has maintained the space in mint condition. All windows are fitted with solar and blackout shades, which will trade with the apartment. All overhead light fixtures have been upgraded with architectural lighting and an Allied Maker pendant fixture over the dining area. A dedicated laundry room within the unit features a Bosch washer and dryer alongside custom storage built-ins. A deeded storage unit is located on the same floor as the apartment, just across the hall for ultimate convenience. The Cammeyer is a full-service condominium with full-time doorman, maintenance staff, and package room. Amenities include a fully-equipped gym, bike room, and a 3,600 square foot common roof deck with beautiful plantings and spectacular wrap-around city views. The Cammeyer is a pet friendly building.
