Description

Voluminous light-bathed duplex loft in an iconic prewar gem, NYC’s prestigious and unique Police Building at 240 Centre Street. A true exceptional architectural landmark, this stunning classic yet contemporary one-bedroom 1.5 bath residence is a loft-lover’s dream in a prime location in Nolita. Soaring ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, original details and refined finishes are complemented by generous windows brightening the ambience all day.

Come home to a modern jewel boasting an expansive open-plan main level affording effortless living and entertaining.

Relax or host guests in the spacious open living and dining room punctuated by double-height ceilings, thin graceful columns into the open kitchen, and massive 10-foot east-facing windows overlooking Centre Market Place. The chef in you will be inspired in the sun-filled renovated gourmet kitchen appointed with sleek white cabinetry and black countertops, tiled floors and premium stainless steel appliances. A floating steel staircase ascends to the upper open yet private loft level perched above, housing the sunny king-size master bedroom with high beamed ceilings and room for a sitting area.

An elegant high-end tiled spa bath with glass-enclosed tub/shower, lovely powder room with white tile flooring and black border accents, convenient washer-dryer and central air conditioning heighten the allure of this rare, wonderful home.

Built in 1905-1909, and designed by Hoppin & Koen, 240 Centre Street served as the headquarters for the New York City Police Department from 1909 to 1973. The striking, architecturally significant 6-story landmark was converted into a 55-residence luxury cooperative in 1988 by Ehrenkranz Group & Eckstut, and greets residents with a spectacular lobby. Amenities include a full-time doorman, concierge, resident manager, live-in super, elevator, fitness room, communal garden, and basement storage.

The exceptional location between Broome and Grand Streets puts you at the crossroads of Soho, Nolita and Little Italy, minutes from parks, subways, and all conveniences.
