A keyed elevator opens directly into the home, introducing dramatic ceiling heights ranging from 10 feet to over 20 feet, most strikingly within the double-height living room. A sculptural floating staircase serves as both architectural centerpiece and functional art, creating an environment equally suited to refined entertaining and private daily living. The open chef's kitchen is designed with both form and performance in mind and is equipped with premium Miele appliances, including a 30-inch wine refrigerator, a 36-inch side-by-side refrigerator and freezer, convection and speed ovens, a water filtration and chiller system, stainless steel cabinetry, and Corian countertops. The residence features four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, with spa-like Carrara marble baths that are timeless, restrained, and thoughtfully detailed. Five terraces extend the living experience outdoors, offering multiple moments of light, air, and privacy. Additional highlights include a newly installed HVAC system with sleek linear diffusers, Lutron lighting, integrated Sonos audio, a central fireplace, and Brazilian cherry wood flooring throughout. Originally constructed in the late 19th century as the Hawley & Hoops chocolate factory, 285 Lafayette Street is a significant example of SoHo's industrial heritage and among the neighborhood's earliest luxury loft conversions. Today, the boutique condominium offers a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a thoughtfully renovated lobby, a landscaped common roof terrace, and two separate points of entry, including a discreet Mulberry Street entrance that provides an added layer of privacy and security. Situated at the intersection of SoHo and Nolita, this penthouse represents a rare opportunity to acquire a residence of enduring architectural integrity, substantial scale, and exceptional outdoor space within one of Manhattan's most established and historically important downtown neighborhoods.
