Stunning Triple Mint LIVE/WORK loft apartment in cutting edge Hell's Kitchen/Fashion Center location! Combining the bones of a classic loft with a high-end architect-designed renovation, this glamorous home boasts 12' ceilings, a 31.6' long living/dining room, open 10.10x14.6 chef's kitchen, two immense custom bathrooms, and three separate sleeping zones. The oversized primary suite is set behind custom glass panels, and features an 18x13 bedroom nook, separate dressing room with soaring built-out closets, and incredible en-suite master bath. The bath fixtures here have been custom designed, including a bespoke modern museum quality sine-wave sink and dramatic, oversized step down soaking tub/shower combo. The second bedroom can easily be opened to the living room should you want a double sized entertaining area, and there is yet another windowed room perfect for office/den/maids/kids room which has already been kitted out with custom desk-style cabinetry and murphy bed. The chef's kitchen offers a full complement of bold-faced named appliances (Viking, Sub-Zero, Bosch), a vented hood over the stove, vast stretches of granite counter space, an extra deep and wide sink, and superb storage. To top it all off, the massive south-facing windows sweep over dramatic city exposures, offering light and views rarely found in a loft apartment. Unexpected bonuses include the lovely balcony, which affords a peek of the river, and the apartment has already been wired for sound. It's a perfect choice for any loft homebuyer, and the added versatility of live/work makes it a true find. All this, plus a surprisingly convenient midtown location ready to explode with the new Manhattan West development. Building Notes: Elegant 1915 prewar loft building in booming Manhattan West location, hosting commercial tenants on the first six floors and residential live/work cooperative owners from 7th floor above. Key locked elevators, video security. Pets welcome. Laundry in building. Surprisingly convenient location, near midtown, all trains, Bryant Park, Broadway Theaters, and terrific restaurant scene in the West 30s and 40s. This is a leasehold building, in the British style.
