This sprawling duplex MAISONETTE LOFT is located in the heart of the Meatpacking District in the famed West Village, moments from the Highline Park and the New Whitney Museum, surrounded by New Yorks best boutiques, restaurants, entertainment and transportation. Perfectly positioned off the 24-hour attended lobby in one of the areas most imposing pre-war condominium loft buildings, this rare apartment is accessed via a gracious entry gallery that leads to the sun-flooded, south-facing living/dining area with enormous windows. One is immediately impressed by the superb volume, exposed columns and authentic loft detailing as well as the gleaming maple hardwood floors throughout. A large kitchen adjoins fitted with maple cabinetry and black granite countertops. A bonus is a sizable internal study/office that could also be a more formal dining area. A separate hallway leads you to the south-facing Master Bedroom with its en-suite 5-fixture marble bathroom. Two additional generously proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom complete this floor. One of the most outstanding features of this apartment is the volume of space: unlike so many newer buildings that are shrinking proportions, this apartment celebrates them. A stairway leads you downstairs to a massive 1600sf recreation room, perfect as an entertaining area, home gym, home theater, playroom, or whatever your need requires. The space is large and open with some natural daylight too, and its surrounded by enormous storage closets and includes a full bathroom and a separate entrance. The apartment is located in one of Downtowns best full service loft buildings and is not to be missed.
