Description

Let your visionary self come out to play at 5E in the Smith-Gray building on Williamsburg's thriving yet tranquil South Side. Entering through a generous foyer, you are greeted in the main living area by the breadth and height of this classic pre-war condo Loft. Eleven and a half foot ceilings and sixteen massive arched windows capture the northwest glow that floods this warm, creative home with light throughout the day. Cast iron columns and a unique wooden ceiling amplify the aesthetic, and the floor plan provides generous capacity for living and dining areas... with room to spare. The customized open kitchen with island has white walnut cabinetry, stainless steel backsplash, and granite counter tops, with a surplus of storage and cooking space. Three large bedrooms line the western wall of the home and the master has an en suite bath and substantial walk in closet. A second full bath, more closets, and utility room are situated in the entry foyer. This quintessential loft home has central heat and air, and is on the fifth floor of a landmarked elevator building. The Smith Gray is an historic cast iron structure that has laundry on each floor, bike and extra storage, a roof deck with 360 degree views of Manhattan and Brooklyn, and a full-time superintendent. The location can't be beat; at the intersection of Bedford Avenue and Broadway, you have shops, dining, entertainment and amenities galore. The JMZ is a few blocks away, as is the new ferry stop. You are also just a few blocks away from the area's new gem, Domino Park. Loft's of this size and style rarely come on the market! Please reach out to the seller's agent to have a private showing of this special, iconic home.
