Description

Featured in the NY Times! Own something special!

Welcome to Residence 2B at 463 West 142nd Street - a one-of-a-kind loft set within a converted church convent, where original architectural detail and dramatic ceiling height define the space.

Please note the current wall color is green. Some listing photos were changed to show the living room in a lighter color for demonstration purposes only.

The main living area is anchored by soaring ceilings and oversized arched windows, creating a sense of scale that's hard to find. Original elements throughout add a distinct architectural character that sets the home apart. The proportions feel substantial - from the living and dining area to the overall layout - giving the space an open feel that still remains comfortable and grounded.

The kitchen carries that same scale, offering generous counter space, storage, and a layout that connects naturally to the main living area, making it well-suited for both everyday living and entertaining.

Configured as a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom duplex, the home offers flexibility across levels. The lofted upper area can function as a bedroom, office, or additional living space depending on your needs.

A second standout feature is the private outdoor access. The fire escape has been thoughtfully used as an extension of the home, and from there, a private staircase leads to a bonus space above the kitchen that can be used as a workspace, studio, or storage.

Throughout, the home blends its original character with a layout that remains practical and easy to live in.
