Description

The Grand Madison
225 Fifth Avenue,
5K NoMad, New York

New York Rare to market! An exquisite park-facing 2 bedroom home flooded with southern light, showcasing fabulous Madison Square Park and open skyline views. This expansive, elegant gem located in the heart of NoMad, downtown's hottest neighborhood, is a luxurious jewel where you can enjoy all the stunning seasons of the park's lush treetops in full display, along with vistas of the iconic Met Life Clock Tower and Flatiron Building, and radiant unobstructed skies year-round through wonderful oversized picture windows.

Beautifully designed with sophisticated yet relaxed living-entertaining in mind, the residence greets you with a generous 18' entry foyer - a perfect gallery for artwork and a home office area.

Beyond is a graciously-proportioned living-dining room with airy 10' ceilings, gorgeous wide-plank hardwood floors, and an open Poggenpohl kitchen for the chef. Culinary quarters are meticulously outfitted with abundant cabinetry, Pennsylvania bluestone countertops and island, and seamlessly integrated appliances by Wolf, Viking, Bosch and Sub-Zero. Effortlessly host large dinner parties or intimate family meals while basking in this grand open space with a backdrop of serene park views.

The luxuriously-scaled king-size primary bedroom suite is a tranquil retreat offering lovely park and Flatiron Building views, a wall of 26+ linear feet of amazing custom closets, and a dreamy 5-fixture en-suite spa-like bath.

Clad in white marble, this oasis pampers with a double vanity, soaking tub, and separate glass shower for unwinding after a long day.

In the north wing rests a peaceful second bedroom, a pin-drop-quiet sanctuary with 10' ceilings, a custom closet, and rich wide-plank hardwood floors. Other highlights are a large centrally situated 3-piece marble hall bath, multi-zone heating/cooling system for climate comfort, Bosch washer/dryer, and large private storage room on the same floor that conveys with the unit.

Idyllically located for a century on the north side of Madison Square Park, The Grand Madison conceived by Francis H. Kimball and Harry E. Donnell is a shining example of timeless Beaux-Arts style, reflected in its 1906 architecture of handsome brick and limestone. Formerly known as the Brunswick Hotel, the building boasts a magnificent sprawling lobby and white-glove services/amenities including a 24-hour doorman, concierge, live-in resident manager, handymen, a fitness room, and in-house valet for package delivery, laundry, dry cleaning, shoe shine, tailoring & housekeeping service.
