This spacious lofted studio delivers what so many dont: real separation, an impressive sense of space and a highly functional layout.Double-height ceilings, hardwood floors and a striking wall of north-facing windows give the main living area an airy feel, while abundant natural light fills the space. Generous proportions allow for distinct areas for living, dining and working from home without compromising the sense of openness.Unlike many studios where the kitchen and sleeping area compete for valuable living space, this home keeps both separate, preserving the full scale and flexibility of the main room.The fully updated kitchen is positioned just off the main living area, with stainless steel appliances, streamlined cabinetry and ample counter space. A new wooden staircase leads to the lofted sleeping area. With approximately six feet of headroom, space for a king-sized bed and a closet, the loft functions as a true sleeping retreat while remaining visually connected to the home below.Two additional closets on the main level add another layer of practicality.The location is equally compelling. Set on a tree-lined Chelsea block at the crossroads of Greenwich Village and Flatiron, the home places many of Downtown Manhattans most desirable neighborhoods within easy reach. Restaurants, shopping, culture, nightlife and green space are close by, while multiple subway lines just a block away make getting around the city equally convenient.The building has its own quintessential New York story. Originally a knitting mill, this five-story, 44-unit elevator building was converted to a cooperative and today retains elements of its industrial past while sitting among the classic townhomes of West 15th Street.The building is equipped with a laundry room, video intercom with remote access and an Amazon locker for secure deliveries. Pets, pied--terres and subletting are permitted with board approval.Note: Photographs have been virtually staged with digital furniture and dcor to help buyers visualize the home's potential.
