Listing Notes
A full-floor loft defined by scale, light, and one of Manhattan's most iconic outlooks; direct corner views of the Flatiron Building anchor this exceptional residence in the heart of Flatiron. Private elevator access opens into a gracious foyer, setting the tone for a home that unfolds across expansive, lofted proportions, with soaring 11 foot ceilings. Three distinct living areas offer remarkable flexibility for entertaining, lounging, or working from home, all complemented by rich maple hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light pouring in from multiple exposures. The layout is both functional and adaptable, featuring two generously sized bedrooms, along with two primary closets that elevate storage to a rare level for loft living. The sense of volume throughout is undeniable, with the opportunity to reconfigure into a three-bedroom home without compromising the integrity of the space. Positioned at the intersection of Flatiron and NoMad, this location offers seamless access to some of Manhattan's best dining, shopping, and lifestyle destinations. World-class restaurants, boutique fitness studios, and design-forward retail line the surrounding blocks, while nearby Madison Square Park provides a rare green escape just moments away. Multiple subway lines are within close proximity, allowing for effortless connectivity throughout the city. Set within a boutique condominium, the building offers the added benefit of a more intimate, private living experience, complemented by a part-time doorman. This balance of service and scale provides both convenience and discretion, an increasingly rare combination in downtown Manhattan.
