36 Bleecker Street, 5-A

Tenant in place, please inquire for details A superlative home in an exceptional building, Residence 5A at The Schumacher is grand in scale and dramatic in sensibility, an achievement in space and design in Noho's most coveted condominium. Built as a four -bedroom loft, this stunning apartment was converted to a three-bedroom of outstanding proportions. Sought after prewar details include soaring 12’ exposed brick barrel vaulted ceilings (the highest ceilings in the building), oversized arched wood frame windows, fumed 7.5" wide plank white oak floors and cold rolled blackened steel accents. Impeccably conceived and meticulously finished, this apartment has been custom limewashed to perfection by Axel Vervoodt’s preferred artisan and includes today’s most advanced smart home technology. Natural light bursts into a sprawling 22’ x 34’ great room, which allows for multiple seating areas, through four oversized windows. Generously sized separate living and dining spaces are easily carved from this impressive room. A custom-made projector and screen provide movie theater quality entertainment from the comfort of your living room. A large adjacent chef’s kitchen is appointed with top-of-the-line appliances, Calacatta marble countertops and slab stone island with marble waterfall. This home is well suited for displaying a prominent art collection from an abundance of wall space in the living areas, expansive foyer and gallery. The massive 31’ x 12’7 primary bedroom has the same soaring exposed brick barrel vaulted ceilings. Four large windows give way to streaming natural light and overlook a lush courtyard garden by the famed Ken Smith, best known for his spectacularly designed MoMA roof gardens. This opulent room can easily accommodate a separate seating or lounging area. A spacious walk in closet is equipped with custom shelving. This bedroom enjoys access to two en suite Calacatta marble baths. Drenched in sunlight, the luxurious corner primary bathroom features two windows, heated floors, a deep soaking tub, double vanity and glass walled steam shower. There are two additional king-sized bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath and vaulted ceilings. The south facing bedroom has been enhanced with an oversized arched wood frame window, custom built-ins for additional storage, and an ensuite windowed bath with Toto washlet. Completing the thoughtfully crafted layout is a powder room, washer/dryer and AV closet off the rear gallery. The entire home has been outfitted with state-of-the-art audio/video in-wall and invisible speakers, all controlled by a Crestron system linked to a tablet or phone for convenience. Automatic shades are installed in each room. Formerly a celebrated 1920 Romanesque Revival-style print atelier, the Schumacher was re-envisioned to a full service luxury condominium with only 20 units. It is now recognized as one of the most premier buildings in the neighborhood with well-practiced discretion. Amenities include 24/7 doorman concierge, fitness center, children’s playroom, and a beautiful roof deck.
