Opposite the farmhouse island are white flush-frame cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and soapstone countertops. Festive string lighting along with vintage commercial pendants creates a chic atmosphere. The single-level, floor through open layout is defined by a cathedral-beamed ceiling with skylights, wide-planked original pine flooring, exposed original brick, and multiple windows to provide abundant daylight and fabulous cityscape views.The separate bedroom has a wood-beamed ceiling and ample closet space. The bathroom is a stunning white-on-white sanctuary with a steam shower feature, antique chandelier, and oversized pedestal sink. 5B’s other features include: in unit W/D, elevator, ample storage under the dormers (including a roll-out double bed-great for guests), and AC.
