Truly one-of-a-kind duplex loft in the heart of Flatiron.

Masterfully reimagined by SPaN Architecture, Residence 2/3 at 26 East 22nd Street is grand four bedroom home, featuring two full levels of living space in a 1903 loft building. Directly accessed via key locked elevator, guests are welcomed into the double height entry foyer that feeds into the formal salon. Four massive windows overlooking 22nd Street bathe the space in natural light, while the backlit onyx hearth and mahogany accents provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere. On the opposite side of the foyer, there is a cozy screening room, flanked by sliding doors on either end.

Twenty three foot ceilings, and a custom steel and wood staircase, with structural glass flooring, anchor the dining space. Floor to ceiling bookshelves, a brick accent wall and a gorgeous mahogany ceiling all provide a grandiose yet organic setting for dinner parties. The open kitchen provides an abundance of storage, through custom floor to ceiling cabinets, and a separate butler's pantry. Chefs grade appliances by Wolf and Subzero complement the space. For more intimate gatherings, the dining nook off the kitchen features a plush built-in banquette. Adjacent to the kitchen the living room offers plenty of space to lounge and relax, with direct access to the solarium. Framed by floor to ceiling steel and glass panels and 5 full turn glass doors, the solarium is perfect for an office, playroom, or greenhouse.

Ascending the staircase to the second level of the home, marvel at the blackened-steel chandelier - over 8ft in circumference - that is a showpiece in the dining space. Crossing over a steel and wooden bridge, the primary suite boasts more oversized windows and enough space sleeping, as well as an additional lounge or office area. The primary bath is a spa-like retreat, with a rain shower with teak wood flooring, separate soaking tub, marble clad walls and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms, a full bathroom and full utility room with a vented W/D complete this level.

Originally constructed in 1903 as an electrical supply warehouse, 26 East 22nd Street is an intimate seven unit cooperative. All units are directly accessed via a newly updated key-locked elevator. This pet-friendly building offers private storage, an intercom and part-time superintendent.
