Description

The Residence: 158 Mercer Street is widely recognized as one of downtown’s finest addresses. This sophisticated and dramatic approximately 4200 square foot sun blasted loft with high ceilings has been meticulously designed. A dramatic living and entertaining space with a bright north west corner exposure is highlighted by stately columns, dark wood floors, a wood burning fireplace and a sleek state-of-the-art open kitchen featuring all new custom cabinetry with new Calcutta marble countertops, new Viking stove, Subzero wine refrigerator and ice maker.

Adjacent to the grand living space is a custom designed library with lacquered millwork by AD100 architect Cooper Robertson Partners. A private and luxurious Master suite is highlighted by hand washed silk velvet upholstered walls. The Master bedroom closets are lined in custom dyed blue dark cloth.

The opulent Master bath with custom plaster walls is complete with a vanity and Waterworks hammered nickel sink. In addition there are two secondary bedrooms both with beautiful bathrooms ensuite. This is a rare opportunity to own an authentic soho loft turnkey home in the most desired full service condominium in Soho. The Building: New Museum Building in central Soho at 158 Mercer between Houston and Prince Streets is an intimate full-service condominium with 12 stories, 19 apartments and a coveted location.

Designed by Cleverdon & Putzel in 1897, this former office building subsequently became home to the New Museum of Contemporary Art in 1996, and was converted to a residential condominium when the institution relocated to the Bowery. A 24-hour doorman, concierge, 2 entrances with separate elevator banks, a laundry room, private basement storage and beautiful rooftop deck are among the prime amenities. Live surrounded by the world-class shopping, upscale restaurants and abundant transportation for which the desirable Soho/Nolita area is known.
