Welcome to fabulous 5C at 129 Lafayette Street, a handsome prewar condominium in prime Soho! This expansive, 3 bedroom 2 bathroom luxury loft is a sight to behold and a joy to live in, with impeccably-designed living space, massive windows on triple exposures (south, west and east) overlooking Soho and Little Italy, and a private balcony. The turnkey gem exudes the character and refinement one seeks in a high-end loft, marked by soaring 12' beamed ceilings, bright white oak hardwood floors, custom built-ins, recessed lighting, and premium modern finishes throughout. Enter through a gracious foyer that proceeds to thoughtfully separated living and sleeping quarters. Entertain seamlessly in the grand open-concept great room, bathed in light by a wall of industrial-scale windows, where you can comfortably lounge with guests, watch TV, enjoy a cocktail, and share meals in the generous dining area. The adjoining top-of-the-line kitchen is exquisite and tailored to the chef. Valucine custom lacquer cabinetry, granite countertops, Thermador double ovens, a 6-burner Viking gas range with externally-vented hood, Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher enhance the culinary experience. Off the foyer, a private hall leads to the divine sun-bathed primary bedroom suite featuring huge custom insulated windows, motorized shades, and a tremendous custom walk-in California closet. Pamper yourself in the soothing spa-like primary bath appointed with a custom double vanity, cream terrazzo floors, a Kohler 'Tea for Two' soaking tub, and separate glass-enclosed shower. Rounding out the comfort is a second bedroom with a substantial floor-to-ceiling closet; renovated windowed full hall bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower, heated towel rack, and floating vanity finished in a natural wood tone; and third bedroom now uses as an office accessing the private terrace. Other highlights include a fully-vented washer-dryer, private storage area, and attractively low monthly carrying costs! Built in 1911, the limestone-clad 129 Lafayette designed by Frank H.
