Listing Notes

Welcome to Loft #10ABC at 159 Madison Avenue, a rare and expansive 4-bedroom, 3-bath residence offering 2, 400 square feet of thoughtfully designed interior space plus an additional 200-square-foot private terrace. This one-of-a-kind home also includes a dedicated home office and is an exceptional opportunity in the heart of NoMad. Perched on a high floor of a well-established prewar building with open exposures, this unique home is the result of a meticulous combination of three units, creating a layout that prioritizes comfort, flow, and versatility. The interiors blend warm wood floors with slate-colored cabinetry and striking brushed stainless steel countertops, set against a sleek marble island and backsplash, part of a total kitchen renovation completed just last year using high-end SieMatic cabinetry, known for its quality and modern appeal. The open-concept living and dining area is anchored by a beautifully crafted chef's kitchen and easily accommodates a large dining table ideal for entertaining or everyday gatherings. At its heart is a large central island surrounded by extensive cabinetry, including double-hung cabinets, two built-in pantry closets, and smart double-drawer storage solutions offering exceptional storage for a New York City home. The appliance suite is built for serious cooking and effortless entertaining, featuring dual Wolf ovens, a warming drawer, six-burner gas induction cooktop, Miele range hood and dishwasher, as well as a wine cooler and beverage refrigerator. Track lighting and new fixtures installed throughout the apartment provide a contemporary finish and a bright, well-lit atmosphere. The layout is thoughtfully designed for privacy, with two separate wings wrapping around the central outdoor terrace. The front wing hosts the main living area and a guest bedroom with an adjacent full bath that can easily be converted into an en-suite. The rear wing includes a spacious foyer, gallery area, home office, two additional bedrooms, a third full bath, and a laundry area equipped with an LG washer and Whirlpool dryer. Above the guest bath, office, dressing room, and laundry, built-in attic storage with ladder access offers a clever and discreet storage solution, an uncommon luxury in New York City. The private terrace, accessible from the living room and two rear bedrooms, is outfitted with lighting and heating, making it perfect for outdoor dining, relaxing, or indulging your inner gardener, rain or shine. Whether hosting guests or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this terrace seamlessly extends your living space in any season. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with a spacious bedroom and sitting area, enhanced by custom two-tier window treatments. A dream dressing room includes a wall of custom closets and additional attic storage crawlspace above. The en-suite spa bath is clad in two-tone Portuguese limestone and features dual sinks, a Japanese soaking tub, and a walk-in shower with Hansgrohe XL rain showerhead. All three bathrooms feature heated floors and Wesaunard heated towel warmers for ultimate comfort. Additional upgrades include electric shades in the living room, primary bedroom, and home office, as well as soaring ceilings reaching 9'4 , contributing to the home's sense of volume and light. Modern conveniences continue with a fully ducted Mitsubishi 6-zone split system for individually zoned heating and air conditioning, all remotely controlled for maximum efficiency. Soundproof, energy-efficient windows ensure a peaceful, serene environment throughout. 159 Madison Avenue is a full-service, prewar cooperative with 24/7 doorman service, a dedicated staff, and resident superintendent. Ideally located just north of Madison Square Park, the building offers easy access to both east and west side transportation and is surrounded by some of the city's best dining, shopping, and cultural experiences.
