108 Leonard Street 6I

Rare and highly coveted, this south-facing 1,126-square foot one-bedroom/two-bathroom "I-line" residence with additional den/home office area has exceptionally high 12 ceilings-of the highest in the building-and smart customizations added by the owner. Located in the Tribeca East Historic District, 108 Leonard Street is a grand full-service condominium with 20,000 square feet of amenities, including a swimming pool, in one of the city's most beautiful and celebrated buildings.

With its 12' ceilings and massive windows facing south, the home enjoys sunlight throughout the day. The home is pin-drop quiet. The owner's customizations include California Closets and motorized shades throughout, with sunshades for the living/dining room and blackout shades for the bedroom, as well as full-height drapes in both rooms. In the den/home office area, the owner has installed a handsome desk-and-Murphy bed console with additional shelving, and the area can be enclosed by a motorized blackout shade for sleeping.

This unique den/home office area doubles perfectly for working from home and having a second sleeping area, with access to the home's second full bathroom. (The desk-and-Murphy bed console is removable if wanting to use the space a different way.) This second bathroom features a standing shower and sculptural Nero Marquina marble sink.

Upon entry into the residence, a foyer with a coat closet and a closet housing a washer dryer leads to the large great room. The generous layout wrapping around the open kitchen in an L-shape allows for flexibility in furniture arrangement for the dining and sitting/media areas. The great room's western wall, with its ceiling height, is perfect for showcasing art.

The exquisite chef's kitchen features custom-designed Scavolini cabinetry, marble countertops, a new Thermador refrigerator, and premium Miele cooking appliances, including a four-burner gas range, electric speed oven, convection oven, and wine fridge. A large island with waterfall marble houses a built-in microwave and the dishwasher.

The large bedroom suite has an enormous walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with high-honed Calacatta Mandria marble floors and walls, Fantini polished chrome fixtures, a custom double vanity, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower.

Two-zone central air and heating are throughout the home.

Built in 1899 by McKim Mead & White in the Italian Renaissance Revival style, 108 Leonard Street is one of the most recognizable and beloved landmark buildings in New York and is the anchor of the Tribeca East Historic District. Converted to a condominium in 2018 with design by the award-winning Jeffrey Beers International, the building is full-service with 24-hour doorman, concierge, and live-in resident manager.

The building's 20,000 square feet of amenities include a fitness center, swimming pool, two-level roof deck with a grills and fire pit, children's playroom, media room, storage, and parking garage. The swimming pool is 75 feet long, and adjacent to it are a steam room and sauna.

108 Leonard Street is surrounded by all of Tribeca's shopping, dining, and cultural institutions. In keeping with the building's provenance and restoration, the building's retail floor has become the new home of the world-famous Jack Shainman Art Gallery. The building is proximate to the 1/2/3, A/C/E, N/Q/R/W, and J/Z Subway lines.
