272 Water Street is a prewar boutique condominium built in 1900 and converted in 1998, originally serving as a 19th century wine warehouse. Located on a quiet cobblestone street in the South Street Seaport Historic District, this intimate landmark building contains just 11 to 13 residences. The building features a virtual doorman and is steps from the waterfront, Brooklyn Bridge, and the Fulton Street transportation hub with access to multiple subway lines.
The loft style apartments showcase authentic prewar details including exposed brick walls, original hardwood oak floors, structural columns, and soaring ceilings ranging from 12 to 15 feet. Most units feature eastern facing oversized windows that flood the spaces with natural light, in-unit washer/dryers, and private storage units in the basement. The open floor plans allow for flexible living arrangements, with several units offering convertible layouts.
The building's duplex units are particularly notable, with one spanning 2,426 square feet and featuring a chef's kitchen outfitted with Carrera marble countertops, custom Corian cabinetry, Sub-Zero refrigerator with dual temperature controlled wine cooler, Wolf double oven and five burner cooktop, and a kitchen island with a built in walnut sushi bar. The master suite in this unit includes eight custom closets (including a dedicated shoe closet) and a spa like bathroom with a Wet Style soaking tub, separate shower, trough double sink, and Grohe hardware. This particular unit is the only one in the building with fully integrated central air conditioning throughout. A dramatic staircase constructed from reclaimed wood from the building connects the floors, and the apartment features recessed LED lighting with remote control and dimming functions.
The penthouse duplex occupies the fifth and sixth floors of the seven story building and includes a 594 square foot private terrace with views of the Brooklyn Bridge and downtown Manhattan. The South Street Seaport neighborhood has experienced significant revitalization, with acclaimed restaurants including CUT, NOBU, and establishments from chefs Tom Colicchio and Keith McNally nearby, along with boutique shopping and waterfront attractions.
