This three-bedroom, full-floor SoHo loft, located in an 1872 cast iron building with classical elements, contains seven original columns with ornate detailing that span the length of the apartment, including the living and dining areas, kitchen, and master bath. About 4,000 square feet, it has 12 windows that measure almost 14-feet-high — six are in the front and six are in the back. The ceilings are covered in silk grasscloth and there are teak floors. A perched seating area with storage separates the living and dining rooms. The kitchen features teak and glass cabinetry, soapstone countertops, a porcelain trough sink, stainless steel hardware, and high-end appliances. The master suite contains a custom-designed, walk-in teak closet and a bath with a teak and marble vanity (plus two sinks), a curved-glass and marble shower, radiant heated floor, and an extra-deep soaking tub with a “window” that peeks into the bedroom. This condo, located in an elevator building, comes with Creston-programmed lighting, audio-visual, and climate-control systems.
