From the library to the rooftop sunroom and private terrace with dazzling Hudson River views, loft lovers won’t want to change a thing in this perfect penthouse at 288 West Street. As 6sqft previously reported, actress Jennifer Connelly and British actor Paul Bettany bought the four-bedroom penthouse in celebrity-magnet Tribeca for just under $7,000,000 in 2008. Four years later the couple reportedly sold the home in an off-market sale for $8,495,000 when they decamped for the brownstones of Brooklyn. The 4,000-square-foot penthouse loft is back on the market, asking $12,000,000.
Details like impossibly high ceilings, steel-framed, and arched factory windows, and wooden beams frame a huge open living room and large, cozy library. The library offers a full wall of built-in shelving for your entire collection and a wood-burning fireplace.
Skylights and walls of windows frame the vast double-height loft kitchen. A huge dining area allows for both casual gatherings and grand-scale entertaining.
The primary suite is everything a primary suite should be. A massive dressing room is joined by an elegant travertine-clad bath. There are three additional large bedrooms, each fabulous in its own way.
Stairs in the library lead to a magical sunroom. The city is at your feet, and the roof terrace is just outside.
Enjoy 1,280 square feet of private planted rooftop terrace for indoor-outdoor living. Plantings provide optimal privacy, and the views in every direction provide inspiration.
Known as the Medium Lipstick Building, 288 West Street was built in 1890 and used as a spice warehouse; it has since been converted to a 14-unit co-op. The lobby offers keyless entry and video security.
