203 West Houston Federal Townhouse

Summary

Tucked discretely behind a handsome historic Federal-style façade, a sleek Philip Starck-inspired interior awaits. Why choose between vintage and modern for downtown living when you can have both? Currently configured as two separate duplexes, this townhouse can easily be converted into a single-family residence.

The entry-level duplex, designed as an open loft space, is a visual delight. Entertain guests or just settle in for the night next to the gas fireplace. The top-of-the-line kitchen features floating custom-built cherry cabinets with Duravit hardware, granite counters, a Bosch oven, a gas-powered range with a hidden vent, an oversized stainless steel refrigerator and a Bosch dishwasher. A full bathroom and storage space are also located on this level. Outside, a private south-facing garden is the perfect oasis and includes brushed cement walls and a custom-built Argentine charcoal grill. Back inside and up an elegant floating staircase, the master suite awaits. The suite is cleverly suspended over the garden below, and includes a large walk-through master bath with an oversized shower and an adjoining office or seating area.

The upper-level duplex is as equally impressive as the space below. The south-facing living room overlooks a tree-lined green space that affords privacy and serenity. The modern kitchen has been updated and features stainless steel appliances. A full bathroom is located on this level. Upstairs, two bedrooms and an additional full bathroom can be found.

The entire townhouse has had all of its plumbing and electrical wiring replaced in the past five years. Steel beams, a fire escape, and a new rear wall have all been recently installed. This is a great opportunity either to move in and occupy both spaces as one residence, to live in one unit and rent the other, or use the entire townhouse as an investment property. An additional 400 sqft of FAR may be available.

Irving Place Penthouse Duplex...

A rare chance at history and serenity in the midst of it all!

Stretched over 27 vertical feet of the top two floors of this prime Gramercy Park co-op, the opportunity to create a townhouse in the sky beckons. Plans are in place to create a dramatic duplex residence with 3-bedrooms, 2-baths and 2-half-baths. In addition, the proposed floorplan includes a sweeping floating staircase, new fenestration, a laundry room and abundant closet space.

The plan retains the home's two existing wood-burning fireplaces, which imbue the living room and master bedroom suite with warmth and ambience. The solarium and terrace with panoramic city and park views on the upper floor will also remain intact. Dramatic in any incarnation, the architectural plans included in the sale capitalize on the space's three exposures and uncommonly grand ceiling heights, but can easily be customized to suit the most exacting tastes. This is a rare opportunity to create a thoroughly unique space within one of Manhattan's most coveted addresses.

A penthouse oasis in SoHo NYC

Of course I am here to keep you drooling with anticipation. So today we will get a sneak peak at one of the most unique penthouses in the entire city right now. This is a rarity in that it is a doorman elevator building with all amenities, but the apartment itself has more outdoor space than many apartments in town. This is an amazing property unlike anything else in the world. There are great loft spaces, townhouses, towns, even islands and such to purchase across the globe. To secure a penthouse of these proportions, in the heart of the city many refer to as the center of the universe, in central Tribeca no less, is monumental. This is over 7000 sf of space within and 4000 sf of PRIVATE outdoor space. The full service building is made by the same Architect of the famed Dakota and the internationally acclaimed Plaza. The building also offers a gym and business conference center. The home is unmistakably unique as it offers a private glass enclosed penthouse designed by Alan Ritchie. There is a massive living room, dining room and BILLIARDS room that all spill out onto the private 35ft rooftop pool for this home. There is a fully stocked caterer’s kitchen with sub-zero wine fridge for up to 300 bottles. This is a property that will make the world sit up and not only take notice, but give you a standing ovation and demand an encore!!! I have seen $125K/mth rentals and $16M penthouse apartments. This one takes the cake for sure!

As always, stay tuned for more mind blowing spaces in NYC!
