FURNISHED RENTAL ONLY Welcome to this exceptional loft in the historic Gilsey House, where 12-foot soaring ceilings, intricate pre-war details, and a stunning wall of six oversized windows define the space. This expansive home offers incredible flexibility, currently arranged as a one-bedroom with an office but easily adaptable to feature up to three private sleeping areas, each able to be closed off for complete privacy. Thoughtfully furnished, the primary bedroom suite includes a king-sized bed, with additional sleeping spaces, featuring a pull-out sofa in the sitting room and a murphy bed in the office. Steel-framed transoms and central air conditioning provide optimal airflow throughout the home.

A fully vented hood completes this gourmet setup.

Additional storage is abundant, including a large walk-in closet off the foyer. The Gilsey House is a gem in the world of New York real estate. Mention its name to any expert, and you'll likely hear, "I love that building." Stepping into its intimate lobby, with its preserved original elevator cab and photo gallery that tells the story of this remarkable building, is like stepping back in time. Built in the 1860s and 1870s by architect Stephen Decatur Hatch in the Second Empire Baroque style, with a cast-iron facade designed by Daniel D. Badger, the Gilsey House was originally a luxury hotel and the first in New York to offer telephones to guests. Converted into one of the city's finest co-ops in 1980, with a facade restoration in 2023, this unique building offers a blend of historic charm and modern living. Residents enjoy boutique amenities, including onsite staff seven days a week, a keyed elevator, freight elevator, bike storage, and common laundry facilities, with the possibility of additional basement storage upon request. Located in the heart of vibrant NoMad, the Gilsey House at 1200 Broadway is surrounded by top-notch dining, hotels, and cultural spots. The Ace Hotel is right across the street, along with the Ritz-Carlton, Virgin, Moxy, and Ned/SoHo House Hotels, each with stylish restaurants and venues. Madison Square Park, Eataly, Fairway, and Whole Foods are nearby, as are renowned restaurants such as Atomix and Eleven Madison Park. The location is great for all commutes, with the R/W subway lines one block south, Park Avenue lines nearby, and the express stop at Herald Square just a short distance away, connecting you to the entire city.
