Spacious NYC Loft for Sale Proves There's More Than Closets in the Big Apple (House of the Day)

Please raise your glasses for a toast to @PlatProperties, without whom we'd never know that anything more than a closet exists in New York City -- leastwise this stunning, spacious loft in Lower Manhattan. It's definitely deserving of the crown as this week's #housepornthurs winner! The battle for the title was a classic East Coast/West Coast rivalry, with the NYC loft trumping this Beverly Hills penthouse in our weekly Facebook contest. If you're representing California, you need to bring it harder next time!

"Few things in New York are as special as open space, making this five-bedroom TriBeCa apartment a rare and beautiful find," the listing for the NYC loft says. (Trust us, we know.) From a private elevator entrance, you'll walk into an expansive foyer that opens into the 4,000-square-foot loft with high ceilings and light wood floors. Arched windows will bathe you in sunlight as you take in the spacious living room with a library and room for a dining area. The place has five bedrooms (each with three closets!). But the best -- of course -- is the master bedroom with his-and-her walk-in dressing areas that lead to a luxurious marble bathroom. The loft is going for $7.995 million, but we'd hustle all day and all night to snag this fabulous pad.

Arie Abadi and Cyrus Eyn of Platinum Properties have the listing.
