ABOUT: This two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bathroom loft fuses a modernist aesthetic with industrial materials to create peerless, cutting-edge style in the perfect SoHo location.
Previously owned and designed by award-winning "starchitect" Winka Dubbeldam, the 1,661-square-foot apartment is open and airy, with high ceilings, clean lines and a seemingly endless amount of storage. The massive 27-foot-by 18-foot living room, lined with oversized windows facing north and east, flows organically to the large dining area. Bold metal columns pay homage to the neighborhood’s manufacturing past, while the open kitchen is minimalist sophistication at its highest. Here, bold color, black and steel meet to form a chef's dream that's both functional and beautiful.
In the truly special master bedroom, rows of customized closets lead to a gorgeous tiled en suite bathroom with a large walk-in shower and separate deep-soaking tub. The secondary bedroom features a large eastern exposure and more closet space, while the home's half-bathroom adjoins an immense storage area — making it ripe for conversion to a full bathroom should your need dictate. Gleaming hardwood floors and recessed lighting run throughout, and an in-unit washer-dryer provides the ultimate city convenience.
