Welcome to this meticulously renovated, bright and spacious open-plan loft at the iconic Arris Lofts in Long Island City. The architecturally designed apartment features 14ft high ceilings, an incredible 24ft by 18ft living room, central dining room, a generously sized bedroom, and a luxurious, modern, mosaic-tiled bathroom. The high-end European kitchen is tucked away from the living spaces, isolating both noise and cooking smells. This sound-proofed open-plan space is ideal for entertaining and boasts gallery sized walls, perfect for displaying art. The property is located in the heart of LIC, close to restaurants and the waterfront, and is a quick 10-minute commute to midtown Manhattan by subway (E, R, M, 7) or car (Queensboro bridge and midtown tunnel). The entry foyer opens up to views of the dining area through to the living room and is located next to the kitchen for ease of access. The bedroom area is hidden away, creating a private experience. A large bank of windows welcomes in vast indirect sunlight and overlooks an open streetscape with no close obstacles in sight. Spectacular sunlight reflections can be enjoyed throughout the day for a continuously transformative living experience. The owner of the loft is an architect who designed and oversaw this immaculate renovation. The intent throughout was to preserve the airy openness of the apartment while creating distinct privacy zones. The living room is semi-enclosed by built-in custom cabinetry that provides bookshelves and media storage in the living room and clothing storage in the bedroom. There is an additional walk-in closet that leads to the bathroom. The kitchen was customized to serve a household that loves to cook and is divided into two sections: a main cooking area and a breakfast nook, both of which offer generous counterspace and are equipped with Bosch appliances. The kitchen boasts an impressive 75 linear feet of shelving, and is adjacent to the pantry, which offers additional storage as well as a top-of-the-line European washer and drier. The renovation, valued at $250,000, includes high-end French oak hardwood floors with a soundproof underlay, new soundproofing on the exterior walls, brand new kitchen, fully built-in Wi-Fi infrastructure, and an apartment-wide network of built-in speakers for a complete cinematic and musical experience. This is a fully integrated Smart Home, which controls the speakers in every space, including full surround sound in the living room. All light switches are connected to Google Home and are Alexa compatible. Arris Lofts is a unique luxury residential building, offering a beautiful private rooftop, peaceful landscaped courtyard, fully equipped gym, and salt-water pool. The surrounding neighborhood is buzzing with life and new commercial developments, and the apartment is located minutes from some of NYC’s best restaurants. This is a unique opportunity to own a multifaceted home that offers both a peaceful, relaxing retreat and an ideal space for entertaining, while being closely connected to the city and the lively LIC neighborhood.
