Formerly a spice warehouse, pre-war details include original wood posts, wood center beam, and beautifully maintained exposed brick. A key-locked elevator opens into the dramatic great room with a wall of west-facing windows. Space is an ultimate luxury and this home has lots of it! The Great Room is nearly 36-ft x 31-ft and the open kitchen is a chef and entertainer's dream, wonderfully appointed with center island and top-of-the-line appliances, including 6-burner Wolf range, 56 bottle Liebherr wine refrigerator, and oversized apron-front farmhouse sink.
The spacious primary suite is truly a retreat, with two exposures, two very large walk-in closets, and a relaxing five-fixture bath with radiant-heated floors, free-standing soaking tub, large glass-enclosed shower, double vanity and Carrara marble floor and walls. There are also two very generous additional bedrooms (one with ensuite bath) and a large home office (media room, work-from-home, you name it...). Side-by-side washer/dryer, central heating and cooling, and fantastic storage throughout. There is also a private storage unit that transfers with this home.
The Spice Warehouse is a boutique condominium converted in 2013, with only 13 residences. An outstanding full-time Superintendent takes meticulous care of the building, complemented by a virtual doorman which provides convenience from your phone. The building also has a bike room, package room, and a gym. Located in the West Soho enclave of Hudson Square (where Disney and Google are expanding their NYC presence), the building is perfectly situated between the West Village, Tribeca, and Soho, with all the conveniences and amenities that each has to offer, as well as easy access to Hudson River Park.
