Introducing a gorgeous, high-floor corner loft at 111 Fourth Avenue - one of downtown Manhattan's most coveted pre-war full-service co-op buildings. This extraordinary two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence is a seamless combination of two original layouts, masterfully blending the integrity of its industrial architecture with elevated modern design and sweeping 270 views.
Graced with three open exposures - south, east, and west - this loft is bathed in natural light throughout the day and offers a cinematic perspective of the city skyline, stretching from the Manhattan Bridge to the gothic steeple of Grace Church. Soaring 13'6" ceilings amplify the grandeur of the space, creating a true sense of volume and airiness.
Upon entry, a gracious foyer sets the tone, before opening into a spectacular great room of dramatic scale. Here, newly restored 10-foot factory double hung windows frame the expansive, open-concept living and dining area, offering a stunning panorama of natural light and sweeping city views.
Anchoring the home is a custom Henrybuilt kitchen, where expertly crafted, bespoke cabinetry meets thoughtful, high-function design. Clean, modern lines are complemented by a warm, natural palette that adds a sense of softness and timeless sophistication. Designed to meet the demands of both everyday living and elevated entertaining, this eat-in kitchen features a sleek island with breakfast bar seating, along with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, Bosch five-burner induction cooktop, speed oven, and dishwasher. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered: from a pull-out pantry and display shelving to integrated storage systems. This is a kitchen that maximizes both aesthetics and utility.
Storage and versatility are woven throughout the heart of its design. An efficient home office nook is cleverly tucked between the kitchen and secondary bedroom, while additional closets are hidden within the staircase that leads to the windowed lofted mezzanine, a flexible space ideal for an office, playroom, art studio, library, den, or guest sleeping area.
The primary suite is a quiet retreat, complete with generous closet space and a spa-like en-suite bath featuring a deep soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, dual vanity with medicine cabinets, and Toto toilet. The corner secondary bedroom receives abundant south and west light and overlooks 4th Avenue with a unique bird's-eye view of Astor Place.
Additional features include newly refinished hardwood floors, a brand-new state-of-the-art HVAC system with ecobee smart thermostats, hardwired motorized shades with blackout functionality, and upgraded Lutron lighting controls.
Designed by Starrett & van Vleck, the same architects of the Lord & Taylor Building, Saks Fifth Avenue and the American Stock Exchange, 111 Fourth Avenue was built in 1920 as the headquarters of the International Tailoring Company, then one of the world's largest manufacturers of men's custom-made clothing. Converted to cooperative use in 1980, the now landmarked building retains its architectural gravitas while offering residents exceptional full-service living.
Residents enjoy two beautifully landscaped roof decks with panoramic skyline views, laundry on every floor, bike storage, and exceptional full-time staff including a 24-hour doorman and live-in superintendent. The building also offers outdoor parking, available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note cats are welcome, dogs are not permitted .
Perfectly positioned just south of Union Square, at the crossroads of Greenwich Village, East Village, and NoHo, this home places you at the very heart of downtown's cultural and culinary pulse. With its grand proportions, abundant light, and modern renovations, Residence 9CD at 111 Fourth Avenue is a rare opportunity to own a truly move-in-ready loft downtown in a building with a rich architectural pedigree.
