1361 MADISON AVENUE, #3A

Manhattan, NY 10128

With so little turnover in this landmarked and exquisite 1903 Beaux Art building, a once-in-a-generation sprawling classic 6 room apartment awaits you and your architect. From front to back and west to east, light pours into this marvelous home with grand entry foyer, 9'6" ceilings (with cove molding), oversized windows, hardwood floors and beautifully proportioned rooms. The moment you open the door, you are drawn to the big, square living room with its decorative fireplace and ample wall space, ideal for hanging art. From here, the room flows seamlessly to the gracious dining room, one that can easily accommodate large family dinners. A swinging door, original to the construction, opens to a good-sized windowed kitchen and generous staff room. The staff room, with windowed bath ensuite, is large enough to serve as a third bedroom, guest room or home office. All told, this wing offers superb living and entertaining possibilities.

Back in the entry and down the corridor is the bedroom wing where you will come upon the second bedroom with walk-in closet and bathroom ensuite. And, at the end of the corridor, is a private area with primary bedroom that offers two exposures, three windows, good sized closets and space enough to easily accommodate a king sized bed. A marvelous layout in a fine building at an excellent price will enable you to create a home in New York that many can only dream of.

1361 Madison Avenue, originally intended as officers' quarters for the Armory nearby, became home to many, this is an exquisite building with a grand and majestic lobby. Converted to a cooperative 1981, it is a well established, full service, 7 story building with 52 units. Amenities include: fulltime doorman, live-in building manager, laundry room, bike room and storage. Permitted: 75% financing, pets; W/Ds case by case.
