Rare Loft-Style Marvel in Downtown Binghamton is a Must-See
Available for sale for the first time ever since it's state-of-the-art conversion and located in the vibrant and desirable neighborhood of Downtown Binghamton, 103 Court Street is the pinnacle of loft-living. Originally built in 1867 as a fraternal club house, 103 Court has been home to a theater, bridal salon, beauty salon and apartments over its many years. When the current owners purchased it roughly 20 years ago, they took their wildest dreams and ran with it. This property stands tall as a single-family loft home boasting 6,600 square feet with 12' ceilings and remains the first and only single family residence in downtown Binghamton. The space is so ideally proportioned for entertaining, that many groups, non profits and other elected officials have hosted a multitude of dinner and cocktail parties at the property since being converted from a mixed-use building to a single-family home in the early 2000s. Four floors of thoughtfully-crafted architectural design matched with a functional, full floor open concept living. Throughout the interior of the home is a masterful blend of restored original splendor including the gorgeous spruce hardwood flooring, exposed brick, extensive glass, and a tin ceiling-all infused with a distinct style of modern living. Previously utilized as a commercial space, the ground floor now serves as an oversized garage, which can accommodate 8 cars or a variety of workspaces. A full basement with excellent storage space sits underneath the ground floor. Upon entering one flight up on the 2nd floor is the first floor of living, you're greeted by a warm and friendly atmosphere. Stand in the living room and look all the way up, 40 feet of an unobstructed view to the roof. Catwalk like beams cross from right to left creating a captivating aesthetic. The main floor of living features a gourmet kitchen that is one any chef would appreciate. The extra deep 14' rain forest marble center island is spacious enough for 10 or more people to gather and entertain around. Just beyond the kitchen is a large corner banquet breakfast / sitting area . Nestled between the living area and the kitchen is an open, spacious dining area.
