42 Wooster Street, 5-NO

"The Space is The Art," explains owner and designer, Sara Tecchia, in this sophisticated, high-tech, masterfully crafted 4,800+ square foot 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath loft in the heart of Soho. Step directly from the private key-locked elevator to the welcoming foyer, framed by a custom gently curving backlit bookshelf that guides your attention toward the palatial great room. The 47.3 ft x 28.5 ft great room with exposed beams is dramatically illuminated by two sets of massive floor-to-ceiling arched windows. Two sets of French doors that lead to the 528 sq ft, custom-lit, partially-covered terrace.

Just off the great room, the entertainment area is equipped with a top of the line 75 inch Samsung 4k LED television, Artison Studio soundbar, Apple TV, and Sony Blu-ray player. The Piet Mondrian inspired powder room features an LED mood wall that changes color by remote control, providing an unexpected and playful contrast to the softer palette of the rest of the home.

The open gourmet kitchen comes outfitted with an integrated Miele refrigerator, freezer, and dishwasher, a Gaggenau range and oven, and countertops and backsplash finished in glossy, gray Ceasarstone. Bespoke rubberized wooden cabinets with gracefully integrated custom-designed pulls complete the kitchen. Nearby, a large pantry provides additional storage space and discreetly conceals a Miele dishwasher, Miele Washer/Dryer and Leibherr wine cooler. Flowing from the kitchen is a bright, spacious dining area with two over-sized sets of windows.

The master suite is outfitted with an Eco-smart fireplace, motorized shades, and a motorized headboard that allows you to face the terrace or the fireplace at the press of a button. Conveniences include floor-to-ceiling closets with custom lighting, a walk-in closet and dressing area with adjustable floor-to-ceiling shelves, a large mirror, luggage storage, and built-in motorized clothing rods that can be raised and lowered.

The windowed master bathroom with double sinks, a curved vanity, heated porcelain floors, and Laufen bidet, is a luxurious spa-like retreat. The raw copper deep-soaking tub provides an uncanny softness to the water. The enormous double rain-shower with multiple body-jets and a hand-held sprayer is conveniently outfitted with a built in bench and shelves. The shower's intricate glass mosaic tiling, with subtle pearl and golden tones and custom sparkle grout, is a work of art.

Two additional bedrooms complete the sleeping quarters, each with interior Luminii lite wardrobes with motorized clothing rods, Sonos speakers, Samsumg 4K LED TVs, and blackout shades. The north bedroom includes a sizable en-suite bathroom boasting a glass top floating vanity, Laufen wall hung bidet and toilet, full size bath tub with Corian deck, Steamist steam shower, Sonos speakers, a glass top floating vanity and Caesarstone flooring.

Throughout the home, the flowing white walls finished with rounded corners and a pristine floating reveal create one fluid visual line. Doors blend seamlessly into walls to create a sense of discovery. Underfoot, European oak floors in varying depths of gray give a soft anchor to the airy, modern aesthetic. Temperature and lighting are controlled locally by the RTI entry touch screen panel or remotely from your smartphone. Custom lighting by Hervé Descottes and world renowned lighting firm L'Observatoire International, a Sonos speaker system, and a built-in humidifier, are final thoughtful touches.
