166 Perry Street #1B

This sprawling 2,526 square foot duplex maisonette/loft is located on the south east corner of the luxurious 166 Perry Street condominium with views onto Charles Lane, one of the oldest and most charming cobbled stoned streets in the Far West Village. Designed by cutting edge, world renowned Asymptote Architecture and customized by celebrated NYC designer Laura Kirar, this extraordinary home is truly one-of-a-kind. On the main floor, an expansive Living Room with 12' ceiling heights and southern facing floor-to-ceiling operable windows gets beautiful light filtered by the building's unique cascading perforated metal facade. The open Kitchen centers around an 11' x 4' island (artistically sculpted out of an enormous single slab of Corian) and features top-of-the-line Sub-Zero and Miele appliances, Dornbracht fixtures, floor-to-ceiling white lacquered custom cabinetry and Vermont green slate flooring. Elegantly tucked behind the Kitchen is a large Home Office/Gallery that could easily be converted to an extensive walk-in Pantry. Also on the main floor is a grand Primary Bedroom with those same 12' ceilings and operable French doors set into the southern facing floor-to-ceiling glass facade. The en suite Master Bath boasts honed Vermont green slate flooring with radiant heat, custom-designed sculpted Corian vanity, sink, tub and shower, and Dornbracht polished chrome fixtures. Automated curtains and shades, 10' sliding glass pocket doors, and wide plank oak wood flooring are featured throughout this level. There is also a powder room with linen closet off the large entry foyer. A beautiful, simple glass railing allows natural light to filter down the stairs where the Media/Recreation Room and Guest Room are located. The Guest Room is presently configured as a sound-proofed music studio and features a hidden queen size Murphy bed, and a full bathroom with large marble shower. Also located downstairs are a Bosch washer and dryer, and an access door to the building's basement for quick entry to the residents' gym and storage room (where a storage locker is available for an additional fee). The owner is in the process of contesting the real estate taxes on this residence. 166 Perry Street, a boutique building of only 19 residences has a 24 hour doorman and full time staff, as well as a resident's roof terrace with extraordinary views of the Hudson River and the Empire State Building/City skyline.
