Description

Behold, a magnificent Loft style South/West facing Corner apartment, located at the much coveted Powerhouse. A historical condo conversion project on Long Island City's direct waterfront.

This is a unique opportunity to not only purchase a pristine home in immaculate showroom condition, but also the only available unit for sale in the entire Bldg. offering panoramic open views, flooded with exceptional Southern light at any time of the day. Gorgeous Western exposure sunsets over the East River do not disappoint.

With impressive 10' feet high ceilings and a footprint of nearly 1,300 sq.f., this large Loft truly stands out, making it one of the largest 2-bed/2-bath units in all of Long Island City.

Apartment is outfitted with block out shades and blinds throughout. With this amount of beautiful natural light, trust us you'll need them!

Oversized living room with open-island kitchen features beautifully polished White Attica Quartz Countertops, and is a true focal point of this special home, equipped with updated modern appliances from Fischer Paykel and Bosch. Brand new German Bosch Washer/Dryer units were just installed earlier this week. A very distinct and special design of custom kitchen cabinetry is equally as impressive. American Walnut floors throughout, complete the look.

South-West exposure extends into the King-sized Master Bedroom, featuring a spacious walk-in closet. On-suite Master Bathroom comes complete with a Double-sink vanity and a rain stall shower. Great entry hallway is convenient and large enough to park a stroller (or two).

The Building:

The Legendary Powerhouse in Hunter's Point/Long Island City, formerly the Pennsylvania Railroad Power Station, a turn-of-the-century power plant building painstakingly converted into true luxury residences by acclaimed architect Karl Fischer. Situated in the heart of Long Island City, on the picturesque East River Coast and mere steps to Gantry Plaza State Park, this impressive transformation blends raw industrial chic, contemporary styling, and extraordinary amenities with harmonious living. The result is an unparalleled lifestyle opportunity. One of only two condo developments in all of LIC are situated right at the waterfront. TAX ABATEMENT still in place.

The Amenities:

They are exceptional, some of the best in the waterfront area. Included in your monthly fees is a Staffed Gym with a Sauna, Steam Room and a Jacuzzi to enjoy after a hard day's work. Showers & lockers as well.
24-hour Doorman/Concierge; Live-in Superintendent; Fitness Center; Aqua Grotto Full-Service Spa: Whirlpool with exotic waterfall; Common Roof Terrace; Bicycle Storage: Free WiFi; Common Lounge with Pool Table & Wet Bar; Media Room; Business Center; Children's Playroom; Cold Storage; and On-Site Parking & Storage Space Available.
The bldg. lobby is a stunning fusion of polished concrete floors with white-glass panel, natural wood and brick walls.

Take in the panoramic cityscape views from the Roof Garden providing BBQ grills, dining areas and sunning deck.

Complimentary Wifi throughout the building; a Full-Service Business Center; Bike Room and Cold storage for worry-free grocery deliveries. Rental parking in bldg. adjacent at rates from $350/mo.
Urban Market and Black Star Coffee shop located in the building!

Location:

It really does not get any better. You're living directly above Gantry Plaza State Park. Serene, spectacular 20 Acre Park with a new Southern addition/extension. Grab the 7 Train, 2 blocks East and zoom to Midtown/Grand Central in 5 min. flat. G train gets you to Greenpoint, Williamsburg & rest of prime BKLYN. E/M trains are nearby. East River Ferry is new and modern and takes you to 34th St, BK & Wall St. and is literally across the street, docking at the Gantry Park, a 1 min walk from your front door.
