The ultimate in loft living at the top of Duane Park! A highly desirable layout/location combination that’s rarely available, this 2 bedroom (with an extra spacious sleep area), 2 bath beauty of a penthouse is the epitome of what a luxury Tribeca loft should be, with 2 stories of bright open space, beautiful new arched and oversized south facing windows, refined finishes, plus an incredible private landscaped roof terrace stretching 24 × 83 feet! This impeccably designed home occupies a full floor in an intimate building on Historic Duane Park, at corner of Staple Street; arguably Tribeca’s best block. True loft and luxury living can be found in this 200+ year old building in a superbly renovated space with all the modern furnishings, that smartly retains its historic past. Exposed joist ceilings that soar to 13’ and large skylights lend drama and airiness to the ambiance. Rich antique pine and walnut floors add warmth and character. Limestone flooring in the kitchen, dining room and baths induce a chic contemporary feel. The discerning chef will love preparing culinary delights in the large modern kitchen equipped with generous marble counter space, premium appliances (Dacor range and microwave, Miele dishwasher and Sub Zero refrigerator), and custom Tucker Robbins light fixtures. Meals can be enjoyed in the separate dining area, then guests can step down to the large open living room graced by a wall of windows and wood-burning fireplace with a limestone ledge. Or take it outside for entertaining under the stars amidst the lower Manhattan skyline. The master bedroom features California closets and a private bath with Duravit fixtures designed by Phillippe Stark. Stainless steel from Neo Metro adorns the guest bath. Other distinguishing amenities include a sound system on each floor and on the roof deck, 42" wall-mounted plasma HDTV, custom window draperies, abundant closets, central air conditioning, Miele washer and dryer, and private basement storage.
