Property Description

Residence 5K is a bright and beautifully proportioned one-bedroom home spanning 753 square feet, designed to maximize light and comfort. West-facing oversized bronze-framed casement windows flood the residence with afternoon sun, casting a warm glow across the white oak floors and creating an inviting, airy atmosphere throughout the day. Storage space is abundant with a customized walk-in closet in the bedroom and multiple entry closets.

The interiors thoughtfully blend industrial character with refined finishes, paying homage to the neighborhood’s rich history. 9-foot concrete ceilings add a loft-like feel, while warm walnut custom millwork brings depth and balance. The sleek Nero Marquina black marble kitchen and spa-inspired Blue de Savoie marble bath are complemented by top-of-the-line Miele appliances, blackened nickel Waterworks fixtures, and an in-residence washer and dryer for effortless living.

At 196 Orchard, the living experience extends well beyond the home. Residents enjoy a curated suite of amenities, including a stunning 4,100-square-foot rooftop retreat with an outdoor living room, sun-drenched lounges, and breathtaking city views by night. Entertain around the chef’s table or prepare meals in one of two fully equipped outdoor kitchens. A 30,000-square-foot Equinox anchors the building, with residents offered preferred membership pricing, alongside the convenience of a 24-hour doorman and a dedicated resident superintendent.

Designed by globally acclaimed architect Ismael Leyva in collaboration with New York–based INC Architecture & Design, 196 Orchard is a bold celebration of contrast. Its striking facade—crafted from hand-laid black and bronze-glazed brick imported from Spain—echoes the industrial spirit of the Lower East Side while embracing a distinctly modern, luxurious lifestyle. Positioned at the iconic corner of Orchard and Houston, residents are moments from the neighborhood’s most sought-after boutiques, restaurants, and ever-evolving nightlife—placing the energy of downtown Manhattan right at your doorstep.
