Description

Housed in one of the few pre-war, cast iron loft conversions in Williamsburg, The Smith Grey offers authentic 1884 historic architectural texture with the luxury and convenience for modern living.

Apartment 5F is a loft-like, flexible space that allows for one or two private sleeping quarters or a master bedroom with guest room, nursery, or study. Flooded with light, and showcasing dramatic city and bridge views through large-scale windows, 11-plus foot high soaring ceilings, meticulously designed and maintained- this exciting home offers dramatic space to entertain and comfortable, inviting space to live and enjoy.

An impressive entry hall ushers you into the vast and open living, cooking and dining space with stunning views and perfect proportions for large scale entertaining or quiet times to relax and unwind. The generous kitchen features stainless steel appliances, white painted hardwood cabinets and granite counters and is perfect for the home chef with generous cabinet, counter, and prep space.

The 15 foot long, king-sized master bedroom is accessed via 9 foot high savaged wood barn doors and the 11 foot long guest room, with transom window, opens to the living space via frosted glass French doors to take advantage of the brilliant natural light. The pristine bathroom features slate gray ceramic tile, a glass doored, oversized step-in shower with rain-shower head, and ample storage space.

With such appealing features as solid oak hardwood floors, iconic tongue and groove lumber ceiling, central air conditioning, private mechanical/storage room and a hookup for an in-unit washer/dryer this handsome home has much to offer in terms of authentic NYC character and convenience.

Built in 1884, the Smith Grey was converted to a 40-unit condominium in 2002. Residents enjoy the convenience of a full time superintendent, laundry on every floor, bike storage, and a spectacular roof deck with wide-open views of Brooklyn and the Manhattan skyline. 138 Broadway is ideally located a few short blocks from the heart of South Williamsburg with the best shopping and renowned dining, one block from world renowned Peter Luger's and the convenience of the J,M,Z subway within four blocks.
