LOFT-LICIOUS Over-scaled & Upgraded: Bright 2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom, Stellar Home (This upgraded home is on the quiet West 20th Street side of the historic O'Neill building.) In 1887, proprietor Hugh O'Neill had a dream. The forward-thinking businessman envisioned a grand, handsome, block-long department store on a stretch of Sixth Avenue between 20th and 21st Streets - a remarkable destination that would set the standard for a new shopping district. O'Neill's dream was realized as an attractive, cast iron, formidable emporium with a unique pair of large, iconic beehive domes on both ends. Hugh O'Neill's Department Store was known for its grand scale, its convenient location, its soaring ceilings, its impressive entry, its good service, and its treasured second floor. Some things never change . Stunningly converted to loft condominiums, the O'Neill Lofts is now known for a supreme locale, stunning architecture, friendly service, and stupendous scale -- particularly on its coveted second floor. Formerly host to the Ladies Finery department of Hugh O'Neill's Market, this easy-to-love, impressive second floor residence boasts 13'-9" ceilings (extra high on floor 2), and bright, oversized, South-facing, city-quiet windows. The built-for-entertaining living room is open to the dining area, and is a casually elegant, feel-good space with handsome wainscoting - a generously-scaled room ideal for lounging and relaxing. Its cook's kitchen boasts premium appliances by Viking and Subzero, and an abundance of gorgeous stone counters and designer cabinetry. The Master Suite is worthy of the name -- large and lovely -- quiet and bright. With the same soaring ceilings found in the rest of this luxurious home, with a winning floor-to-ceiling, custom walk-in closet, and with an en-suite marble bath with soaking tub, separate shower, and dual sinks, this bedroom bests most top-shelf hotel suites. The guest bedroom is big and beautiful, bright and tranquil, and is served by its own full, marble bath. In this spacious, pet-friendly, lofty condo home -- a heart-warming residence with in-home laundry and ample well-planned closets -- life is easy and good. The doorman is full-time, the superintendent is live-in, the planted roof deck has dining and grilling areas, and the convenient address comes with bragging rights: Nearby is most every prime Chelsea cultural, dining, and shopping destination -- not to mention a plethora of easy transportation options, and a new playground/park right on the block. In 1887, Hugh O'Neill had a dream. Today's impressive version of that dream is ready for you.
