Description

Rare opportunity to own a piece of NYC history. Situated in the iconic Bleecker Tower, this exceptional 3,400-square-foot corner loft at 71 Bleecker Street offers an unparalleled living experience in the heart of NoHo. Built in 1898 as the Manhattan Savings Institute Bank Building, this architectural gem is one of the city’s finest surviving examples of 19th-century design and has been transformed into an exclusive boutique cooperative.

Residence 2E is a true standout within the building, boasting towering 13-foot by 20-foot windows that bathe the space in natural light and offer unobstructed views. These dramatic windows frame a vast 72-foot-long great room, effortlessly dividing it into distinct, yet interconnected areas. The loft’s generous ceiling height and expansive layout offer a perfect balance of open space and intimacy, making it equally suited for casual living or more formal gatherings.

The chef’s kitchen is designed for both function and beauty, equipped with premium stainless steel appliances—dual ovens, Fisher & Paykel dishwashers, and refrigerators, plus a wine cooler for added convenience. The sleek marble countertops and custom cabinetry complement the spacious center island, providing a kitchen that’s as visually striking as it is practical.

The luxurious master suite provides a serene retreat, complete with a custom dressing room and a spa-like bathroom featuring radiant-heated marble floors, a Maestro Picasso soaking tub, a standing shower with mosaic tile, Dornbracht fixtures, and a La Cava double vanity. A decorative wrought iron staircase adds an extra touch of elegance to the bath.

An inviting library lined with bookshelves adjoins a media room, offering the perfect space for relaxation or entertaining. The home also features a renovated second full bathroom, powder room, automated Lutron lighting, and multi-zone Sonos surround sound. Additional touches include new hardwood floors throughout and a washer/dryer.

Designed by the acclaimed Nina Serafi, this home marries historic charm with modern luxury. Bleecker Tower offers residents a part-time doorman, a beautifully landscaped rooftop deck, and private storage bins. The building’s storied past, including its role in one of the greatest bank heists in U.S. history, adds to its allure.

Located in NoHo, you are steps away from some of the city’s finest dining at Balthazar, Mercer Kitchen, and BondST, as well as premier shopping, the Bowery and Crosby Street Hotels, and a host of lifestyle amenities.
