The Action: At the Spire, few units are as large as this custom three-bedroom residence with a den and family room. So after two weeks of exposure at $1.395-million, a drop under $1.3-million tempted two buyers into negotiating a deal.
What They Got: Before the construction of a modern high-rise, the original owner had the builder combine two units into this 2,260-square-foot corner suite with stone counters, hardwood and porcelain floors, walls of windows and walkouts in every room but one to a 90-foot wraparound balcony facing south and east, plus two parking spots and lockers.
Clustered together are the living room, dining area and eat-in kitchen,while the family room is sandwiched between two bedrooms with a wet bar and built-in wine racks. Situated in the opposite wing is an enclosed den and master suite with a walk-in closet and largest of three bathrooms.
Monthly fees of $1,621 pays for water, heating, concierge, fitness and social facilities.
The Agent's Take: "The location was very special because the building is within walking distance to the Financial District, St. Lawrence Market and all other downtown amenities," agent Boris Kholodov says.
"This was designed by ArchitectsAlliance and offers a different range of unit layouts and sizes. And it's a rather tall building, so it has higher-floor suites with spectacular views."
Even more memorable than this unit's sightlines is its spaciousness. "It was an unconventional layout with two units put together," Mr. Kholodov notes. "Most units in the building are one-bedroom units and two-bedroom units under 1,000 square feet in size."
