Property Description for 40 Great Jones Street, 3
Welcome to Residence #3 at 40 Great Jones Street, a rare authentic loft on one of NoHo’s most highly-coveted, landmarked blocks. This finely-designed, approximately 1,800 SF full floor loft is a truly special offering brimming with genuine classicism. The open, airy, yet intimate floorplan is complemented by emblematic details of a bygone era, evidenced in soaring barrel vaulted ceilings, swaths of richly-hued exposed brick walls, and beautiful volume of space – all of which are typically not replicated in today's new development, even within conversions of old world buildings.
An earlier thoughtful renovation preserved the distinctive character while incorporating more modern amenities for the discerning buyer. Natural light from oversized windows and gorgeous wood floors flow throughout the elegant living space. Host fabulous get-togethers in the expansive entertaining area that extends over 50 feet. At one end of the great room, across from the living and dining areas, an open kitchen featuring abundant wood cabinetry, separate pantry, granite countertops and premium stainless steel appliances inspires a chef’s creativity. Twin sets of French doors lead out to two private Juliet balconies where, while having a morning coffee or glass of wine in the evening, you can enjoy the fresh air and charming vista. Proceeding beyond the great room is a spacious den that also can accommodate guests or provide a quiet retreat. The flexible, well-proportioned main rooms work equally well for gatherings or relaxation and the home’s generosity of space lends itself to alternate configurations, subject to applicable rules.
Wonderful glass-paneled, wood-frame French doors at the far end of the loft reveal the serene master bedroom, enhanced by a whimsical decorative wall design, built-in sound system and custom dressing closet. An interior room with its own set of French doors currently acts as a second bedroom, but could equally serve other purposes (e.g. home office, nursery). Another distinct area off the den now used for a play and reading room, along with a generous windowed bathroom boasting double sinks and soaking tub, a washer and dryer, and through-wall air conditioning further optimize your comfort. In addition to plentiful storage within the apartment, there is capacious private storage in the basement.
