305 Second Ave, 6-B

This is your opportunity to live in a truly unique downtown loft in a landmarked building without sacrificing practicality. This mint condition two-bedroom duplex loft condo has it all (yes, including a washer/dryer). The sprawling living and dining areas flow into one another for maximum configurability and include a stunning double-height ceiling, two windows (one of which is rightfully described as "humongous"), and steady flows of sparkling sunlight all day. Both bedrooms are really large, have ample storage, and comfortably fit additional furniture. Top it off with a windowed chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line finishes--Viking Range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, Poggenpohl cabinetry--and you can understand that this is a special home. You'll feel comforted from the moment you enter the gracious entry foyer and drop your things in the large coat closet. Literally, leave the city at your front door.

Rutherford Place is a perfectly located historic landmark building that was notable from the moment it was gifted to the city by J.P. Morgan in the early 1900s. With its beautiful facade and show-stopping marble lobby with soaring ceilings it's no wonder it has retained its prominence, and has been home over the years to celebrities like Tom Cruise, Dave Chappelle, Chris Farley, and too many more to list. Recently converted to condos, this great building has a 24-hour doorman, laundry on every floor (in addition to the washer/dryer that's in this unit), breathtaking landscaped roof deck with panoramic NYC views, and state-of-the-art roof top fitness center also with open NYC views. Perfectly positioned across the street from hidden gem Stuyvesant Square Park and easy to Union Square. From this location in Gramercy Park you're just moments from the East Village, Greenwich Village, and Flatiron neighborhoods, and literally surrounded by some of the city's best shopping, restaurants, and nightlife. Your commute could not be easier with the L, N, Q, R, 4, 5, 6, and W subway lines all minutes from your doorstep.
