This two-bedroom, two full bath apartment at the historic Police Building offers generous space and Western light, which is further welcomed by an oversized skylight in the peaked, soaring living room ceiling, through which one can see the building's central dome clock. At approximately 1,550 square feet, there is ample room for comfortable living.
6M features generous shelving in the living and second bedrooms. The second bedroom opens through French doors onto the living room, and both the spacious primary and second bedrooms offer substantial closet storage. In addition, two large basement storage cages transfer with the apartment. There are two full baths, as well as a large separate kitchen which has a stacked Samsung washer and vented dryer, Subzero refrigerator, and a four-burner Roper gas range and oven, with a built-in Litton-Aire microwave above.
Apartment 6M presents an excellent opportunity for buyers to both update and get creative with the space, tailoring it to individual preferences and lifestyle. Moreover, for those seeking an even larger living space, there's the exciting possibility of combining this apartment with the adjacent, approx. 1,770sf 6N apartment to create a home with approximately 3,320 square feet of living space. Square footage has been estimated by Miller-Samuel.
The Police Building, a grand Belle-Epoque landmark designed by architects Hoppin & Koen, was completed in 1909, served as Police Headquarters until 1973, and since 1988 has been a luxury, full-service cooperative. There is a sunlit fitness center opening onto a tranquil planted terrace, a live-in Resident Manager, and a fully attended lobby including a concierge and 24/7 doorman. Situated at the juncture of SoHo and Little Italy, Balthazar and 19 Cleveland are but two of the scores of noted neighborhood restaurants, the shopping meccas of SoHo and Nolita are immediately adjacent, the 6 train is two blocks away, and Eataly has just opened a block away! There is a 2% flip tax paid by the seller. Pieds-a-terre, subletting, and pets are allowed.
