Loft, SoHo, Manhattan, $10,100

Part of the recently unveiled Constable building, this bright, corner 2 BR loft features the perfect combination of original, landmarked details and newly renovated finishes. Modern fixtures such as a fully-vented W/D, DW, central AC and wide plank, solid oak floors blend beautifully with historic accents like exposed brick, cast iron columns, arched windows and hewn beams along ceilings measuring nearly 11' high. The Constable, located on a quiet block within the heart of Soho, is only steps away from multiple subway lines, shopping destinations and everyday conveniences.Originally built in 1857 as a luxurious department store for Arnold, Constable & Company, the building was landmarked as part of Soho's historic Cast Iron District in 1978. When it originally opened, the store, then known as Marble House, offered silk, imported hand-made lace, bridal veils and other accoutrements for the lady about town, and was patronized by the leading families of the city. Now 150 years later, The Constable has been meticulously restored revealing original cast-iron columns, exposed brick and soaring ceilings with hewn beams. Enhancing this preservation of historic detail, The Constable's newly renovated lofts also feature wide plank oak floors, open kitchens, a fully-vented washer & dryer in each residence, and double-glazed, arched windows.
