55 Liberty Street #28C

Absolute Perfection! Do not miss this exquisite trophy home perched on the 28th floor of Liberty Tower, a beautiful Gothic Revival-style skyscraper widely regarded as the finest luxury cooperative in the Financial District! This sprawling 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home boasts stunning open city and river views and has been lovingly renovated with meticulous attention to detail. The expansive living room is enhanced by a stunning built-in bookcase with sliding ladder, under-window built-ins, and a decorative fireplace, all custom constructed out of the finest wood. The open chefs kitchen is a marvel, with custom wood cabinetry, marble countertops, a hooded, six burner Viking stove, a Sub-Zero fridge, a wine cooler, an enormous panty, a massive dining island wonderful for seating guests, and a plethora of cabinet space. Both bathrooms are large and beautifully tiled, with pedestal sinks. The master bath has a luxurious Jacuzzi tub, and the second bath has a large steam shower stall with a bench. The home is further enhanced by high ceilings, strip hardwood floors, and an in-unit laundry room with a washer, dryer, and sink. Maintenance is 65% tax deductible. Designed by Henry Ives Cobb, 55 Liberty Street was erected in 1910 and designated an official New York City landmark in 1982. The neo-Gothic skyscraper is adorned with terracotta gargoyles, lions, birds, alligators, and flowers. Flanked by crocketed and pinnacled spires and surmounted by a glazed Tudor arch, the entry doors give onto a Gothic vaulted lobby finished in a marble complementary to the exterior terracotta. The marble wainscoting carries through to the upstairs corridors. The full-service, pet-friendly building offers a 24-hour doorman, porters, live-in superintendent and permits pied-a-terre ownership. Spectacularly located, the building is just around the corner from Wall Street, with the South Street Seaport, Hudson River Park, Whole Foods, and the bars and restaurants of Stone Street all within walking distance. Transportation could not be more convenient; you are less than a stones throw from the 4/5, 2/3, A/C, J/M/Z and R subway lines as well as the $1.4 billion Fulton Street Transit Center set to open in December of 2014.
