5 Great Jones Street   Unit 2

Residence 2 at 5 Great Јones is a rare true full-floor loft with amazing volume, this is downtown living at its most authentic, over 2,300 square feet, soaring 14-foot ceilings, and proportions that simply don’t exist in modern construction. The space carries that unmistakable old New York sou. It’s raw, it’s refined, and it’s incredibly special. Rich in history, this extraordinary loft was once home to the legendary jazz musician Charles Mingus as well as to Kermit Love (creator of Big Bird, Mr. Snuffleupagus, Oscar the Grouch + Cookie Monster).
Thoughtfully renovated, the loft retains its original soul while incorporating essential modern comforts. Configured as a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with a sprawling 1,000-square-foot primary suite and a mezzanine-level office or media room, the layout offers remarkable flexibility. Potentially it could be a 4 bedrooms home. Original details abound, including refinished wood floors, pressed-tin ceilings, exposed brick and beams, clawfoot tubs, and vintage French cast-iron radiators. A working wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space, complemented by two decorative fireplaces—one easily convertible. Modern upgrades include wall-through A/C system, in-loft laundry room, integrated high-end appliances, dishwasher, garbage disposal, and oversized soundproof windows. The home also features exceptional storage throughout, including a large private storage cage in the basement.
5 Great Jones is a discreet, boutique coop with solid financials and reasonable building policies. It has a video intercom system. Perfectly positioned on one of NoHo and Greenwich Village’s most coveted blocks, the building is surrounded by some of downtown’s finest architecture, dining, and shopping. Even though it is a walk-up building, the apartment sits just half a flight up.
