Property Description

Loft-Like 2 Bed + Home Office with 15-Foot Ceilings in The Zipper Building.

Welcome to Residence 3A at The Zipper Building — a striking, loft-inspired home defined by soaring 15-foot ceilings, oversized north-facing windows, and a seamless blend of historic character and modern design. Originally a 20th-century zipper factory, The Zipper has been thoughtfully converted into a boutique 41-unit condominium that preserves its industrial roots while offering contemporary luxury. Authentic architectural elements and a distinctive aesthetic set the tone for a residence that feels both timeless and unique.

Inside, natural light pours into the expansive living and dining area, where dramatic ceiling heights create an open, airy atmosphere rarely found at this price point. A custom-built window bench provides the perfect space to relax, while adding both charm and functionality.

The kitchen pairs clean, modern design with high-end functionality, featuring Bosch refrigerator and dishwasher, a Fisher & Paykel range, Samsung microwave, and sleek cabinetry complemented by stone countertops.

Thoughtful upgrades throughout the home enhance both livability and storage, including:
- Custom-built closet in the primary bedroom (2021)
- Built-in bookshelves in the home office (2021)
- Custom window bench seating in the living room (2021)

The spacious bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, while the bathroom is finished with refined, spa-inspired details. While the home office allows for extra flexibility as a work-from-home setup or guest space. A Miele washer and dryer (installed 2022) adds everyday convenience.

Additional highlights include hardwood flooring throughout and custom electric window treatments, including blackout shades in the bedrooms.

About The Zipper Building

The Zipper is a boutique condominium that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern craftsmanship. Retaining its original brick exterior, the building reflects the character of early 20th-century New York while introducing a refined, contemporary aesthetic.

Residences are designed with open layouts, generous proportions, and an industrial-inspired palette that complements a wide range of styles. Kitchens feature elegant finishes and high-quality appliances, while bathrooms are thoughtfully designed with spa-like materials and fixtures.

Residents enjoy a full suite of amenities, including:
State-of-the-art fitness center
Resident lounge with wet bar
Outdoor terrace
Children’s playroom

Ideally located in the heart of Long Island City, The Zipper offers convenient access to the 7, E, M, and G subway lines, waterfront parks, and a vibrant mix of restaurants, cafés, and cultural destinations.

A distinctive opportunity for both end-users and investors seeking a home with character, scale, and thoughtful upgrades in one of LIC’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
