About This Property

Recently featured in the NYTimes, this corner loft, apartment #128 at Arris Lofts, is a rare find in NYC!With unobstructed natural light from south & east exposures, this open-plan modern corner apartment features dramatically high loft ceilings, tall industrial sound-proof windows spanning the apartment, and a spacious converted home office with a Murphy bed for guests, as well as the incredible full building amenities: heated saltwater pool, high-end fitness center, sauna, recreation center, gorgeous roof terrace, garage and more, this home is exceptional in both style and flexibility.#128 is a 1 bedroom/1.5 bathroom loft with a home office. It spans 1077 square feet with an additional 300 sq.ft private terrace, making it larger than many two bedrooms in the city.It’s startling how large the space feels! The exceptionally spacious living room, with its towering 14-ft ceilings and tall, industrial windows facing both south and east, is awash in natural light and perfect for hosting large gatherings especially with a patio door leading to a private 297 sq.ft fenced-in terrace with tall arborvitae trees, an automatic irrigation system, a Weber charcoal grill, dining table, a sectional sofa for lounging, string lights, and 10-ft cantilevered parasol for shade on the hottest summer days. The kitchen is integrated against one wall, the restrained design allows it to recede quietly into the open-plan living room despite its abundance of cabinets and appliances, including an Electrolux oven, stove and dishwasher, a Liebherr refrigerator, a garbage disposal, and Breville microwave/oven/air-fryer combo. With the open flow from the kitchen to the living room and terrace the apartment is perfect for entertaining gatherings of friends and family, or simply enjoying a book and coffee in privacy and quiet.The south-facing bedroom with its high ceilings and wall of windows gets ample natural light and has a projector shelf set up for a cozy home theatre-in-bed experience. As the apartment is a corner, the bedroom feels distinctly separate from the living room. Off the bedroom is a home office with a Murphy bed for hosting guests, and a walk-in closet with additional storage, good for suitcases and other additional items, above.An in-unit laundry closet provides even more storage space, with shelving and a state-of-the-art GE combined smart washer/dryer.The spa-like bathroom has been divided, European style, into two separate rooms: one with an enormous walk-in shower and sink, the other with a toilet and an additional large sink and an abundance of storage.on the first floor, the apartment sits one story above ground level and is located at the back of the building with absolute privacy and wide-open views.Arris Lofts is Long Island City’s premier luxury condo building and has been featured in movies and TV shows. It has full-time doormen and concierges, a saltwater indoor swimming pool, a fitness center and sauna, a children’s playroom, a recreation room, and a communal roof terrace, as well as a courtyard Zen garden. It’s close to Long Island City’s best restaurants, Trader Joes, MoMA PS1, and the 7, E, G, N, R, M, W and F trains, for easy transit to Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn.

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Modern Spaces.

The terrace is under 60 square feet, but the listing has it set up for real use: a dining table, a sectional for lounging, a Weber charcoal grill and string lights. It's fenced in with tall arborvitae trees, and a ten-foot cantilevered parasol gives shade on the hottest summer days.

The bedroom faces south through a wall of windows beneath high ceilings, and the listing says it gets ample natural light. On an open horizon, a south-facing window gets about 8.5 hours of direct sun near the winter solstice and about 10 hours around the equinoxes. Nearby buildings can block it, so treat those figures as the upper limit. The bedroom also has a projector shelf already set up for watching films in bed.

The kitchen runs along one wall and sits quietly within the open-plan living room. Its appliances include a Breville unit that combines microwave, oven and air fryer, plus a Liebherr refrigerator, a Electrolux range and dishwasher, and a garbage disposal. An open plan means less separation between cooking and sitting down, but it keeps the room connected.

This is a corner unit, so the bedroom reads as separate from the living room, which matters in a one-bedroom layout of 1,077 square feet. The washer and dryer are in the unit, so laundry doesn't mean leaving the apartment. The building lists storage space among its amenities.

The listing describes full-time doormen and concierges, a saltwater indoor pool, a fitness center with a sauna, a recreation room, and a communal roof terrace above a courtyard Zen garden. The building has an elevator, and pets are allowed.

For getting around, Court Square is about 3 minutes on foot with the 7, E, F and G trains, and Queens Plaza is about 8 minutes away for the E, F and R. Trader Joe's is about 6 minutes' walk, and MoMA PS1 is about 8 minutes.
