112 Mercer Street Soho Apartment For Sale

Rare SoHo Loft with Terrace and Exceptionally Low Maintenance Located at 112 Mercer Street, this expansive full-floor loft offers a rare chance to own an authentic piece of SoHo’s architectural and artistic history. A cooperative since 1974, the building represents the golden era of downtown loft living in one of Manhattan’s most iconic neighborhoods. This property is offered through the Estate of Vera Jacqueline “Jackie” Winsor (1941–2024), a Canadian-born American sculptor recognized for her influential work in post-minimalist and process art. Her early experience with construction and manual labor informed her sculptural practice, characterized by natural materials, geometric forms, and labor-intensive methods. Winsor gained national attention with a 1979 mid-career retrospective at MoMA—the museum’s first solo show for a woman in its Painting and Sculpture department since 1946. Her work is held in the collections of MoMA, the Whitney, and the Met. She lived and worked in this very loft for decades, contributing to the creative spirit that defined SoHo. Spanning approximately 3,500+/- square feet with an additional 300+/- square feet of private outdoor space, the loft features soaring 13+-foot tin ceilings and 13 oversized windows. Triple exposures provide natural light throughout the day—west to Mercer Street and south and east to the terrace and courtyard. In original condition, the residence offers abundant character and awaits your architect's vision. The layout can accommodate 3–4 bedrooms and multiple living areas. Plumbing risers on both ends of the loft allow for flexible design. A large private terrace offers a coveted outdoor escape—perfect for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing. Additional features include a climate-controlled room in the cellar that can serve as an office or studio, and a separate private storage room in the sub-basement. Both are elevator-accessible. The building is secure and well-maintained, with a new entry system and key-locked elevator access directly into the loft. Shareholders benefit from monthly income generated by a long-term retail tenant on the ground floor. As a result, monthly maintenance for this unit is an astonishingly low $200.
