3 West 16th Street, 3

Just off lower Fifth Avenue, 3 West 16th Street is a limited collection of very special rental residences inspired by the great artist lofts of the early 20th Century and thoroughly updated to the height of modernity. Behind the elegantly sculpted facade of carved limestone, enter a gracious lobby fitted in sumptuous travertine marble. Just five full-floor lofts await within, each with its own private elevator gallery landing. Inside the home, uncommonly expansive dimensions greet you the south-facing great room with working wood-burning fireplace measures almost 30×20, extensive lighting punctuates high gallery ceilings, and a glass-framed juliette balcony faces Fifth Avenue. The separate eat-in kitchen is as functional as it is luxurious. Appliances from Bertazzoni, Sub-Zero, and Miele are set into custom cabinetry and fully ventilated. Two of the three bedrooms are winged in the rear of the loft, each with its own spa-like bathroom. The spacious master includes a walk-in closet plus secondary closet, and a deep private balcony open to the sky; the master bath features a separate tub and glass shower, plus private W.C. room. The third bedroom is flexible and also includes a private bath. A separate den can be used as a perfect home office, play room, formal dining room, or media room. A laundry room is included with oversized vented machines. Central air conditioning. 3 West 16th Street has a bike room for residents and a virtual lobby attendant for secure package delivery and security. Elegant, rare, and precious, this home is available for leases beginning in July without condominium board approval. Pets welcomed with approval. Limited time offering of 1.5 months complimentary rent on 14 month leases.
