Property Description
Behold, a magnificent Loft style South/West facing Corner apartment, located at the much coveted Powerhouse. A historical condo conversion project on Long Island City's direct waterfront.
This is a unique opportunity to not only purchase a pristine home in immaculate showroom condition, but also the only available unit for sale in the entire Bldg. offering panoramic open views, flooded with exceptional Southern light at any time of the day. Gorgeous Western exposure sunsets over the East River do not disappoint.
With impressive 10' feet high ceilings and a footprint of nearly 1,300 sq.f., this large Loft truly stands out, making it one of the largest 2-bed/2-bath units in all of Long Island City.
Apartment is outfitted with block out shades and blinds throughout. With this amount of beautiful natural light, trust us you'll need them!
Oversized living room with open-island kitchen features beautifully polished White Attica Quartz Countertops, and is a true focal point of this special home, equipped with updated modern appliances from Fischer Paykel and Bosch. Brand new German Bosch Washer/Dryer units were just installed earlier this week. A very distinct and special design of custom kitchen cabinetry is equally as impressive. American Walnut floors throughout, complete the look.
South-West exposure extends into the King-sized Master Bedroom, featuring a spacious walk-in closet. On-suite Master Bathroom comes complete with a Double-sink vanity and a rain stall shower. Great entry hallway is convenient and large enough to park a stroller (or two).
The Building:
The Legendary Powerhouse in Hunter's Point/Long Island City, formerly the Pennsylvania Railroad Power Station, a turn-of-the-century power plant building painstakingly converted into true luxury residences by acclaimed architect Karl Fischer. Situated in the heart of Long Island City, on the picturesque East River Coast and mere steps to Gantry Plaza State Park, this impressive transformation blends raw industrial chic, contemporary styling, and extraordinary amenities with harmonious living. The result is an unparalleled lifestyle opportunity. One of only two condo developments in all of LIC are situated right at the waterfront. TAX ABATEMENT still in place.
