In the heart of the exploding Nomad District across from The Ace Hotel, The Gilsey House is a meticulously renovated, Baroque, cast-iron masterpiece originally built as a Grand Hotel in 1867. This approx 3000sf apartment was carved out of the hotel's 2nd floor ballroom with 15'7" ceilings, exposed brick walls and soaring windows that capture a glimpse of the top of The Empire State Building. There are two separate mezzanine wings that flank the full height living room and dining room which comfortably seats 12 for dinner. One wing is configured as a master bedroom suite with bath, home office and den.  The other is currently a bedroom and full bath over a large, media room/home office with a built-in desk, bookcases and storage cabinets.  The versatile space is pin-drop quiet, has central A/C, and a full-sized washer/dryer. There are solid oak hardwood floors on the lower level and extremely low monthly maintenance fees.   The storage capacity in the space is truly over-the-top with 15 generous closets, ceiling-height, built-in shelving in the living room and a separate internal storage room. The building allows live/work, pied-a terre, co-purchasing and is pet friendly.  There are two, new, secure, key-locked elevators and a new video intercom system. There is additional storage and a bike room in the basement.  The building is conveniently located to Madison Square Park, all transportation, Eataly, Whole Foods, great restaurants and entertainment.
