Want to be the owner of a unique and historic apartment in an incredible waterfront location? Your search ends here. Completely renovated to the highest standards, this sprawling loft condominium duplex in the historic South Street Seaport, one of the city's hottest neighborhoods, is not only spacious and luxuriously appointed; it offers wonderful light and water views that set the stage for entertaining. A rare find, this 1,102 square foot loft features 3 oversized windows on the main floor with Brooklyn Bridge & Eastern Seaport views, high ceilings and a working fireplace, excellent for relaxing. It boasts a brand new kitchen with Smeg stainless steel appliances, high end countertops and designer fixtures. The renovated bathroom has an oversized Duravit soaking tub, Kohler fixtures and Carrara marble floor tiles. Refinished white oak hardwood floors, recessed lighting, handmade ceramic light fixtures and brand new central air/heating units round out this unique home by the seaport. Additionally there is a large storage unit included with the purchase, located right outside the apartment's front door, effectively creating an extension of usable space for the homeowner. The second floor has a large bedroom with three light flooded windows, that can easily be converted into two bedrooms or an office/study. There is also room for a walk in closet to be added to the second floor if desired. A fully equipped laundry room is found one floor down from the unit, but in case you prefer having it in the apartment a washer/dryer can be easily added on the second floor near the bathroom. Unlike the large overcrowded high rises in the Financial District, the Ships Chanderly Condominium is a boutique landmarked condominium in the historic South Street Seaport district where low rise brick buildings and cobblestoned streets mean charm, exclusivity and privacy. Listed on the National List of Historical Places, the Ships Chanderly is a six-story Greek Revival building erected in 1840 and converted to a charming 15 unit condominium in the 1982. It is possibly one of two surviving Greek Revival buildings in New York City. Well financed and tucked neatly into where the historic South Street Seaport and Financial District meet, in the midst of all the fantastic restaurants, cafes, parks and riverfront promenade that make this emerging urban landscape so unique. Offered in mint condition and certainly not to be missed. Pets are welcome. Please contact us for a private appointment.
