Contemporary Soho Loft With Indoor Pool

Private residences with indoor pools are hard to find. They are rare and usually made on order and the owners rarely choose to sell them or even rent them. It’s much easier for example to find something similar to this 5-story SoHo townhouse. It has its own indoor pool and it can be rented for $100.000 a month. It’s not a small price but it has a lot to offer. If you don’t want or don’t need to rent it a whole month you can just rent it for $50.000 a week or $20.000 a day.

What’s more, this home is famous. It has been used Beyonce and John Mayer that filmed music videos in there, it has also been used as a set for “Damages” and for Esquire magazine’s photo shoot in 2009′s Sexiest Woman Alive Kate Beckinsale. So it’s not just another townhouse with a pool inside. Some research of the property’s records showed that it is owned by Marcus Nispel, the director of movies such as “Conan the Barbarian” and the remake of “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”.

The residence is located at 214 Lafayette St. and over the years it has been used as a factory and a gallery space. When the current owners bought the place in mid-1990s they spent around 12 years renovating it. So you can imagine that it has been a dramatic change. The volume above the pool is a space that can be used as an office and above that there’s a three-floor residential apartment with three bedrooms. It’s a large residence with a modern interior and lots of options regarding its use.
