Ideally located between Prince and Spring, on a lovely block with a row of Historically significant 1800's townhouses, this unique Carriage House studio is tucked away, all by itself, behind the building.
A private, interior entry hall to the studio space has a recently renovated, windowed full bath with a big, glass enclosed shower, a convenient windowed, "mudroom" alcove with a bench and rack for hanging and a door to a shared, romantic garden patio. A welcome oasis for your enjoyment and meditation, the secret garden transports you to another time and place. The brick and stone of the surrounding buildings mixed with a collection of architectural artifacts and potted plants ~ all under the canopy of the most beautiful Japanese Maple tree.
The sprawling Studio space is an artist's dream and unquestionably inspiring as evidenced by the provenance of tenants including Sam Shepard and Larry Hagman! Soaring 12 foot ceilings, a huge skylight that fills the space with natural light and floor to ceiling painted brick walls exude the alluring character and charm of a bygone era. The modern efficiency kitchen has everything you need and is equipped with a stainless steel sink and open shelving, a two burner cooktop, mini Sub Zero refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and LG washer dryer combo.
Just steps to all that Soho has to offer and the A, C & E trains just a block away!
