Impeccably renovated and exquisitely designed by West Chin Architects, this stunning 4,100SF full floor, five bedroom residence is the epitome of stylish modern loft living in the heart of the Flatiron Historic Landmark District.

A striking 50ft expanse of oversized north facing windows greets you as you enter directly from the new, key-locked elevator, delivering brilliant natural light and views of handsome pre-war buildings. With a 12ft high beamed ceiling, 8-inch wide solid ash plank flooring and a nearly 40ft by 40ft living and dining room, this loft residence conveys size and comfort in a subtle voice. Adjacent is a delightfully airy glass-walled home office with an exposed brick wall, a joy to work from.

A welcome extends, with beckoning hospitality, to the heart of the home - the kitchen - where activity is gathered around an expansive 5ft by 13ft polished concrete working counter and breakfast bar, complete with commodious storage underneath. Top-of-the-line appliances include a vented six-burner, double oven Viking range, 42 inch Sub-Zero fridge, Miele Quiet dishwasher and built-in under-counter microwave. A muted black stone countertop is beautifully complemented by Carrera marble backsplash, teak shelving and reclaimed pine plank clad ceiling. Next to the fridge, seamlessly hidden behind reclaimed pine paneling, is a large pantry that offers a 7ft by 6ft shelved and countered space complete with a wine cooler.

A colonnade of handsome riveted steel I-beams with in-floor uplights running down the center of the loft lead you through a slightly elevated gallery to the five bedrooms of this remarkably spacious and well-designed home. Silver-toned pine boards extend all the way into the sanctuary that is the primary bedroom in the rear, an intimate suite that feels cozy and secluded without lacking in space. A large spa-like bathroom features a teak paneled shower, agri-industrial style soaking tub, double sink vanity, gun metal finished fixtures and intriguingly patterned heated floor tiles. A walkthrough closet and dressing area is accessible from both ends of the primary bedroom and offers 25 ft of clothes hanging space and additional closeted shelving. Two additional windowed bedrooms have views extending over rooftops in the rear and share a bathroom with a tub and heated floor, and all bedroom windows have motorized shades. Another two versatile rooms can easily serve as guest rooms, home office or gym, with both having direct access to a third full bathroom with glass walled shower and heated floor.

Other features of this impressive home include a powder room located off the gallery hall; a huge laundry and utility room with full-size LG washer and vented dryer, double fixture farm sink, and its own utility closets for HVAC and AV equipment; a Sonos sound system with built-in speakers in the ceiling of the kitchen, living room, office and primary bedroom. There is a multi-zone HVAC plus humidification system, with four separate, low-vibration, low-noise air handlers and condensers, all located within the loft for maximum serviceability, and all controlled by Nest thermostats.

Designed by Schwartz & Gross and constructed in 1907, 6-8 West 20th Street is a mixed-use, pet friendly, 14-unit loft building originally converted to co-ops in 1978. The building has just undergone a remarkably comprehensive infrastructure/utility upgrade in the last few years - newly renovated lobby and service entrances; all new passenger and freight elevator cabs and motors; upgraded electric service (3 phase); all new water, gas and waste risers; new ventilation and HVAC ducts; new pumps for sprinkler and domestic water supplies; new sprinkler alarm system; upgraded basement steam piping. It's like living in a new building that is over 100 years old.

Prime Flatiron location just off Fifth Avenue with Madison Square Park (one of NYC's finest) and Union Square Park, with its famed Farmers' Market, almost equidistant from the front door. Enjoy some of the finest dining, shopping and entertainment downtown Manhattan has to offer, and just a short distance from a multitude of major transportation lines at Union Square.
