The estate of the late Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison has just listed the novelist’s former home. The Tribeca loft at 66 Leonard Street is asking $4,750,000. Morrison bought the three-bedroom condo for $3,800,000 in 2014, before passing away last year. Unsurprisingly, the home has lots of built-in shelves, filled with books, moments, and art.
The loft is just over 2,300 square feet. The open living space has enough room for a living area and two dining tables and boasts a gas fireplace. The kitchen has modern appliances and cabinetry and cool frosted glass doors.
Though not pictured, a smaller bedroom off the living room has been turned into a library and writing room.
The main bedroom suite has great northern and eastern views, a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub, and a nearly 140-square-foot dressing room. The secondary bathroom has a walk-in closet. In the hall, there’s another full bathroom, a half bath, and a laundry room.
The 12-story condominium, known as The Textile Building, was built in 1901 by architect Henry J. Hardenbergh, famous for his work at The Dakota and Plaza Hotel. It was converted to condos in 1999, and today features 46 luxury units. Amenities include a 24-hour attended lobby with concierge, fitness center, residents’ library/media room with a full kitchen and wet bar, a rooftop terrace with outdoor grills, dining and lounge seating, children’s play area, garden courtyard, package room, cold storage, bicycle room, and private storage.
