An enthralling blend of old world craftsmanship and downtown chic, this expertly renovated and diligently designed full-floor 4,781-square-foot loft offers quality, privacy and a world class location. Through a key-locked elevator and steel-clad door, enter the expansive living and dining area warmed by cascading light through eight oversized windows and a wood-burning fireplace. A light-filled study, that could easily be converted to an en-suite fourth bedroom, bookends the entertaining space. At the heart of the apartment is the magnificent kitchen, equipped with two Miele dishwashers and Viking appliances. In addition, this generously scaled home allows for relaxation in the adjoining den, an escape in the library, or solace in the large home office.

Perfectly designed for those who enjoy entertaining, the living quarters are an isolated sanctuary. The spaciously lavish master suite delivers a fanciful walk-in closet. Uniquely designed with thoughtful detail, the master bathroom features two sinks divided by a glass enclosed shower, and a stand-alone bathtub overlooks the master bedroom through an interior window. Each bedroom includes an en-suite bath, offers plentiful light, and has approximately 11' ceilings.

In 2001, 45 Walker Street, a late 19th Century building, was converted to residential condominiums by design firm Platt Byard Dovell. With seven floors and only six lofts, the boutique condominium offers a virtual doorman with a security video intercom and two large private storage units that come with the apartment. The building allows pets, and pied-a-terres are welcome.
