Description
A Penthouse Oasis High Above Dimes Square. Live in downtown's most exciting and creative neighborhood. Dimes Square, as it's been coined, is an evolving micro-neighborhood between the Lower East Side and Chinatown that has more creative and intellectual energy per square inch than any place else in Manhattan. You will be steps from the endless restaurants and bars from the newly opened Nine Orchard Hotel and Corner Bar, to Le Dive and Cervo's. This three-level Penthouse Condominium is unlike anything in all of downtown. There are helicopter views in every direction, with soaring ceilings, three open exposures, and every convenience of a modern home. With approximately 2,604 interior sf and 780 exterior sf over two private terraces, this home creates the perfect space for chic entertaining, to an oasis from city life. The upper level features an open eat-in kitchen and stunning eastern views of the Brooklyn Bridge and beyond from the full wall of windows. In addition, there is a drool-worthy Thermador range that will impress any chef or one in the making. On the opposite side of this home, you will find a double-wide sun-blasted living room complete with wood burning fireplace, full wet bar, built-in projector, and powder room. Several steps up, there is a roof terrace, which is equipped with a custom Japanese-inspired hot tub, full-size TV, dining area, and outdoor kitchen with open, expansive views of downtown all the way to midtown and everything in between. The three bedrooms are all located on the lower level, separate from the entertaining areas. The master suite is complete with walk-in closets, a stunning spa-like en suite bathroom, and an east-facing terrace. This home has fully integrated AV to control the TV monitors, built-in speakers, and electric shades throughout the apartment. There is deeded storage space adjacent to the elevator, which has been outfitted with closets. 7 Essex Street is an intimate boutique Condominium built in 2004. The building has 16 residences, two lofts per floor, with an on-site superintendent, a video intercom, and a common roof deck. Located with a surplus of some of the city's best restaurants, bars, and cafes along with amazing galleries and boutiques. The new Essex Market is located down the street for all your culinary needs and desires. There is also no shortage of transportation with the B/D/F/M/J/Z subway lines all within close proximity. **Buyer can qualify for a NYC Condominium Tax Abatement if they buy as an individual (not an LLC) and use as a primary residence. The taxes would drop to $3918.**
