Description

Quintessential loft living in Tribeca with exceptional light and views.

45 Lispenard # 8E is a rare corner loft home, approximating 1,800 square feet and featuring wonderful inherent qualities, including oversized windows, 45 feet of south facing sun-drenched frontage (over two standard townhouses in width), with northern exposure over Soho towards the evening lights of the Empire State Building, all complemented by an open layout and 10' high ceilings, replete with their original "barrel vaulting" intact.

Currently set up as an impactful and highly detailed one bedroom, two-bathroom home with a windowed home office, the property lends itself to a three-bedroom conversion, much like other homes have done in this renovation friendly building.

In its current incarnation the home benefits from a gracious foyer and bi-level living room with a rare north and south exposure from the same, expansive space; the view compounded by being above neighbors on all sides. Immaculately kept and in pristine condition, the home's kitchen partially opens into the living area but benefits from a closed portion that simultaneously ensures discretion when entertaining and ample storage. Blue de Savoie marble flooring elevates the room and stove does vent to the outside.

The primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom utilizes the entire eastern wing of the home and via keen design choices, benefits with the properties most private corner, while not compromising on size, view and light.

A discrete windowed office and library area provide a live-work dynamic to the home that is currently so important, with the property completed by a large powder room which doubles as a windowed laundry. Capped by that necessity rarely found in these characterful buildings with historical significance, central AC exists throughout the home.

The Landmarked-classic 45 Lispenard features a gorgeous landscaped roof-deck with grill station and outdoor shower. The video intercom system can be operated virtually by resident phone. With two keyed elevators and only 2 lofts per floor this boutique coop has only 18 units (9 floors), creating an intimate and private collection of larger homes.

Situated in close proximity to the Canal Street subway hub with lines including the 1, A, C, E, N, Q, R, W, J, Z, 4, 5 & 6 trains, all of New York City is at your doorstep. Supplemented by wonderful restaurants such as Frenchette, La Mercerie and Le Coucou, excellent gourmet markets and Trader Joe's, as well as the World renowned Soho luxury shopping district, inclusive of its phenomenal galleries, the location is prime. With the green space of Hudson River Park offering quiet respite and water views only moments away, the home feels as central as one can to all that is good in New York.

Given how rare it is to find exceptional character in any home, we look forward to showing this downtown New York City gem so you can see all the exceptional attributes in person. Listing courtesy of Corcoran Group ...
