Multiple offers, contracts out. Tucked above a tree-lined block in Hell’s Kitchen, this soulful duplex co-op is on the market for the first time in nearly 40 years—formerly owned by a celebrated artist and singer, and it shows in every custom detail. Perched on the top floor of a quaint 4-unit co-op, this nearly 1,500 SF duplex (plus ~350 SF private roof deck) is a true one-of-a-kind home. Walk up just two flights to discover an atmospheric loft with soaring ceilings, exposed brick, a fireplace, hardwood floors throughout, and immense natural light from triple south, north, and west exposures. The home has been thoughtfully updated over the years with mini-split systems, newer windows, and clever storage throughout. The main level features a warm living and dining area with custom artwork, a breakfast-bar kitchen with stainless steel appliances and custom cabinetry, and exposed red brick throughout. A charming clawfoot soaking tub bathroom and a spacious den offer intimate moments of retreat, enhanced by ambient lighting and unique artistic touches. Upstairs, the open loft level is currently configured as a vast, flexible space and thoughtfully designed to accommodate a 2-bedroom layout. Here you’ll find vaulted skylights that frame the sky so completely you’ll forget you’re in the city, copper-plated walls, and imported wood flooring and paneled walls sourced from a barn in upstate New York. There is also a full bath with a standing shower. Off this upper level sits your private, fully landscaped roof deck, complete with skyline views, irrigation/watering system, and outdoor lighting—a true urban sanctuary. The building itself is only attached on one side, offering rare corner light and views overlooking a neighborhood park, plus a beautiful commissioned mural on the side of the building. Originally gut-renovated by a developer in the mid-1980s, the building has been home to a small community of long-time shareholders. Amenities include free laundry in the basement, shared storage, and washer/dryer hook-ups allowed in-unit (with board approval). Monthly maintenance is a very reasonable $1,457. Subleasing is permitted after 5 years of ownership (subject to board approval). A true artist’s loft in the sky—ready for its next chapter.
