Property Description

An extraordinary opportunity awaits in the heart of Flatiron. Spanning approximately 4,600 square feet across an entire private floor, this expansive prewar loft offers limitless possibilities to create a one-of-a-kind residence, an inspiring creative headquarters, or a sophisticated live/work environment. Currently configured as a photography studio, the loft is delivered with a commercial Certificate of Occupancy and the valuable opportunity for an as-of-right residential conversion, allowing a purchaser to transform the space into a spectacular custom home. Any potential conversion should be independently verified by the purchaser, and any conversion work would occur after closing. Exclusive key-locked elevator access opens directly into the loft, offering an exceptional level of privacy rarely found in Manhattan. The generous footprint can accommodate a grand four- or five-bedroom layout with expansive living and entertaining spaces, multiple bathrooms, and every modern luxury, all tailored to your vision. Soaring 12-foot ceilings, oversized north- and south-facing windows, and dramatic open proportions create the perfect canvas for a bespoke architectural masterpiece. The flexible floor plan allows for striking design while maintaining a natural flow between entertaining and private living spaces. There is also potential to explore additional western exposure, further enhancing the loft's natural light. Equally well suited for a gallery, creative agency, production studio, private headquarters, or a seamless live/work environment, the space offers remarkable versatility without compromising scale or functionality. A dedicated passenger elevator and separate freight elevator provide effortless access for furnishings, artwork, construction materials, equipment, and inventory. Situated within a classic Flatiron loft building with a virtual doorman and full-time superintendent, the property enjoys an exceptional location at the crossroads of Flatiron, Union Square, Chelsea, and Greenwich Village. The building permits pets, washer/dryer installations, pied-à-terres, live/work use, and flexible purchasing structures. A 2% flip tax is payable by the purchaser. Surrounded by some of Manhattan's finest restaurants, shopping, and cultural destinations, with easy access to numerous subway lines and the PATH train, this location offers outstanding convenience and connectivity. Opportunities to acquire a full-floor loft of this scale, flexibility, and residential conversion potential are exceptionally rare, making this a remarkable opportunity to create a truly extraordinary home or workspace.
