Description

Loft living at its finest, an ultra cool one bedroom loft with one and a half bathrooms. Soaring ceilings and oversized windows make way for fabulous light and views of the Empire State Building. A Viking & Subzero appliance package completes the massive kitchen finished in Carrera marble and granite with custom cabinetry. The entertaining space spans almost 30 ft, providing an abundance of space which is rarely found in a one bedroom residence. The large bedroom has a walk in closet and a spacious master bath with both a soaking tub and separate shower. Walnut flooring throughout, washer and dryer, and top-of-the line fixtures add to the quality of this home. Originally built in 1887 as a department store, the O'Neill Condo features an impressive roof terrace with large entertaining spaces including barbecue and private seating areas, and a 24-hour attended lobby. In close proximity to Trader Joes, Whole Foods, world class fitness facilities, public transportation, and an abundance of restaurants, the O'Neill condo is in the heart of it all.
