A Broadway and Hollywood star hired the prestigious Soho architectural firm principal, Jack Wettling to deliver the perfect blend of New York and West Coast styles that would make him feel as if he was at home. When he moved on to his next project the new owner took this loft to its next level of style and comfort while preserving some of the priceless touched of the original design. This loft features dramatic entertaining space against a backdrop of 6 large North facing windows, a spectacular glass enclosed office (or bedroom) 2.5 Baths and custom plum-stained 4" maple floors cut on a diagonal bias to reinforce its hip architecturally conceived design and to accommodate privacy and spaciousness for both entertaining and dining and work. Throughout the space one discovers many choice vintage fixtures, and clever and amusing authentic touches. Inspired mixtures of retro and New Age create a fun and luxurious living/entertaining home with Chelsea spirit. The open grey slate-island kitchen highlights a Thermador oven/grill, Bosch Dishwasher, deep stainless sink with insinkerator, a wonderful bar with vintage light fixtures, and brilliant combinations of materials including unique tile work that incorporates the actor's grandmother's antique Mahjong game set. Great storage, insets, and custom cabinetry by a master carpenter provide a practical finish to this artistically complete chef's kitchen. Tucked behind the kitchen in a spacious pantry is a large stacked washer/dryer next to the kitchen. A super-cool glass walled office (convertible to a bedroom) faces North, and has a full vintage bath adjacent. This fully-settled 9 story condominium, with a penthouse on the roof was converted in 2001.
