Description

Check out this floor plan!

It's not often that a fully renovated, masterfully designed property like this comes to the market in BPC. Unbelievably well thought out, this space has been designed to be either a 3 bedroom or 2 bedroom with home office, a formal dining room, open kitchen with breakfast bar, and gracious living room. Truly one-of-a-kind.

Walking in, you are greeted with sunny western light, wide-plank maple flooring, and an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a large living room. Head to the right and you'll find a king-sized bedroom and bathroom. To the left, you enter the formal dining room where you can either continue to the fully renovated second bath and king-sized bedroom, or enter the office/3rd bedroom complete with a wall of closets and pocket doors that fully close and lock.

This thoughtful renovation has no expense spared, right down to brand new windows and thick closet doors made of the finest materials. There are custom built-in components in every closet and even storage built into the breakfast bar! Afternoon light streams in to the entire unit for the perfect evening dinner parties.

The Soundings is the best boutique condo building in Battery Park City. From the friendly doorman, to live in super, gym, roof deck, lounge, children's playroom, dance studio, storage, bike storage, and attached garage - your every need is fulfilled. Perfectly situated in Battery Park City, grocery stores (Gristedes, Battery Place Market, Whole Foods), restaurants (Mir-a-mar, El Vez, Parm, PJ Clarkes, Hudson Eats, Inatteso, Le District), parks, the riverfront esplanade, entertainment (Regal Cinemas, BPCA Programs), and shopping (Bed Bath and Beyond, Barnes and Noble, and the Brookfield Mall). Getting around couldn't be easier - take advantage of the free Downtown connection, M20, M9, and all trains close by!
