263 Ninth Ave, 9-B

1536sf Pre-War Doorman Condo at The Heywood, 263 Ninth Avenue, for under $1700/sf.
Exquisitely designed by Shamir Shah, 9B at The Heywood is a grand one bedroom home with an additional guest room/den and two full baths. And with 12-ft+ beamed ceilings and six oversized 8-ft windows facing east, this high-floor loft is flooded with light and has expansive open city and Empire State Building views.
Upon passing through the welcoming foyer, one will immediately notice the excellent layout and scale of the home. The open kitchen, which is the largest in the building, has stainless steel appliances (including a vented hood), abundant storage, and an enormous 11-ft island all ideal for entertaining. Opposite the kitchen is a dedicated dining area which easily accommodates a table for 10. Separated by full-height pocket doors, the guest room serves as a den, home office, or interior second bedroom with full closet; opened, the room becomes an extension of the entertaining space. Conveniently located near the guest room is the second full bath with basket-weave mosaic marble floor and walk-in shower. This all leads to the Great Room which is grand and comfortable. Finally, the generously-sized Master Bedroom is a welcome retreat, with en-suite 5-fixture marble-and-limestone bath and excellent closet space.
City Quiet windows and solid construction ensure the luxury of peaceful quiet, a rarity in New York City. Wall space and ceiling height create opportunity for art collectors and big screen TV aficionados. Hardwood floors, vented Bosch washer/dryer, and individually controlled HVAC units complete the picture.
