This design-forward, full-floor condominium with private elevator entrance is in a historically significant building. Truly the jewel of Washington Square West, the double-width c.1892 Italianate building with 17-inch interior masonry walls designed by noted architect Frank Miles Day was converted into a boutique condominium with just five units. The spacious, loft-inspired design in Unit 3 boasts high ceilings; frosted glass doors with pivot hinges; oak floors that run on the diagonal; and oversized windows, each of which sits above a contemporary wall-hung radiator. The understated European sensibility of the finishes leaves room for the original details to shine. In the living room, those include three south-facing leaded glass windows and a truly stunning fireplace with ornate carved mantel. The spacious dining room has its own massive original fireplace with mirrored mantel, and one of the two oversized windows has been converted to custom French doors leading to a balcony. A large kitchen with an open galley layout bridges these spaces. The 12-foot-long island with cabinets on both sides and large pantry closet provide ample storage. Crisp white Shaker-style cabinets topped with quartz and paired with white large-format stacked tile backsplash and workhorse Wolf range with Viking hood, Sub-Zero fridge, Miele dishwasher and Hansgrohe faucet create a work space that is as handsome as it is functional. The antechamber entrance to the primary suite amplifies its private nature. The spacious bedroom has a pair of oversized windows and a walk-in closet, and the equally spacious en-suite bathroom has full-wall large-format stacked ceramic tile, radiant floors, a large floating vanity with drawers, heated towel rack, and Duravit and Hansgrohe fixtures and hardware, including a trough sink and soaking tub with dual showerhead, plus Miele laundry machines. The second bedroom has two built-in bookcases and a double-width closet with mirrored doors that highlight the three striking leaded glass windows. Its en suite has the same heated floors and high-end finishes as the primary, this time with an oversized step-in shower. The gorgeous building with a Mercer tiled lobby offers the best of downtown living, with some of the city’s best dining within steps–including James Beard-nominated Vedge just a few doors down–as well as easy access to Broad St, SEPTA and PATCO for commuters, and green space at the Jefferson quad and Kahn and Seger parks.
