161 Grand Street #5-A

Filled with windows and premium finishes, this immaculate two-bedroom plus study, two-and-a-half-bathroom condominium is a serene and sunny retreat in a coveted location bordering SoHo and Little Italy. Fifteen city quiet windows facing north and east flood this 1,771-square-foot home with abundant light and open-sky views that skim over the neighboring buildings and frame the iconic Centre Street Police Building. The refined, muted color palette sets a tranquil mood, while tall beamed ceilings, blonde oak flooring and beautifully curated custom lighting emphasizes the open airiness. Enter via key-locked elevator and take in the large open-plan great room offering plenty of room for living and dining areas. The open kitchen is perfectly executed with ample cabinetry, stone countertops and fine stainless steel appliances by Sub-Zero, Viking and Bosch surrounding a substantial center island/breakfast bar. The coveted split-bedroom layout places two bedroom suites at opposite corners of the home. The master includes eastern light, a custom walk-in closet and a linen closet, and a bright windowed en suite bathroom lined in marble and featuring a large soaking tub, separate shower and dual-sink vanity. The second bedroom includes northern views, a large closet and an equally well-appointed en suite bathroom. The windowed study off the living room can easily be used as a bedroom or nursery, if needs require. An additional closet, powder room, laundry room with in-unit washer-dryer and trash chute access, central air conditioning, a dedicated hot water heater and a large storage bin in the basement add to this gracious home's utter convenience and comfort.
