58 Walker Street, 2

Conveniently positioned in the heart of Tribeca, yet easily accessible to SoHo, this classic, designer 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom condominium loft radiates warmth and industrial chic, surrounded by some of Tribeca's most inspiring art galleries in the Tribeca Arts District. Spanning nearly 2,000 square feet, a private key-locked elevator opens to reveal this expansive loft that welcomes you with dramatic, 13-foot-tall ceilings that, combined with exposed brick walls, gleaming hardwood floors, and massive windows, set the tone for the ultimate Downtown loft lifestyle. The generously scaled great room features south-facing exposures and dramatic art walls. A library balcony with a wrought iron ladder is an enticing feature that, with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves by Snead and Company, surrounds the wood-burning fireplace with its marble mantle topped by oak cabinetry that conceals A/V equipment. The large renovated chef's kitchen welcomes any aspiring - or seasoned - chef with its rich wood cabinetry, stone countertops, and arabesque tile backsplashes surrounding the professional-grade Viking stainless steel appliances, which include a vented gas range, a refrigerator, and a dishwasher. A gallery hall - perfect for art - leads you north towards the sprawling primary suite that opens onto a private terrace. Built-in apothecary shelves are perfect for shoes or curios, and a huge custom closet with herringbone leather flooring is Bergdorf's-worthy. An en suite spa-level bathroom is clad with Calacatta marble and an intricate micro-mosaic floor and includes a double console vanity with Lefroy Brooks fixtures, a dreamy nickel-plated cast-iron soaking tub, and a two-person walk-in shower. The second bedroom features a sizable closet. The third bedroom easily doubles as a home office with a built-in stone-and-pipe desk and shelving. A second, oversized guest bathroom includes double sinks and a large tub/shower. This is a home that truly functions with linen storage, a laundry closet with a stacked washer-dryer, and ducted, central HVAC. 58 Walker Street is an imposing marble, granite, and cast-iron landmark built in 1869 in the classic Second Empire style, designed by architect Benjamin W. Warner, that gives this stretch of Walker Street its uniquely uniform streetscape. Converted to a condominium in 2003, the boutique, 5-unit, pet-friendly building features a part-time superintendent, new video intercom entry, and keyed elevator access. The building has recently invested in - and completed - numerous impressive upgrades. This is a Downtown location par none, surrounded by every conceivable amenity: SoHo, Nolita, The Bowery, The Seaport, and Financial District are all close. World-renowned galleries, boutiques, restaurants, and nightlife venues abound.: Aire Ancient Baths and David Zwirner are two prime examples The City Hall and Hudson River Parks are close too, and transportation options include subway lines N,Q,R,W, J/Z, 4,5,6, A,C,E, and 1 trains, excellent bus service, CitiBike stations, and fast bridge and tunnel access.
