50 MADISON Avenue #RU5

First Appointment: Wednesday, 09/24 A rare full-floor residence with 29 feet of direct park views A keyed elevator opens directly into all 2,630 square feet of this full-floor home, where twenty-nine feet of Madison Square Park unfold behind floor-to-ceiling glass. Perched on the fourth floor, just above the treetops, the residence looks south across the park, with the Flatiron Building and the MetLife Clocktower rising beyond the canopy. Inside, ten-foot ceilings and herringbone floors run the length of an expansive great room that opens toward the park, filling with sun from morning to evening. The windowed chef's kitchen opens to a proper dining room, an increasingly rare pairing, and is outfitted with high-end stainless appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a dedicated wine and beverage cooler built for the way you actually entertain. Beyond the entertaining rooms lies a private wing of three generous bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bath and its own wall of floor-to-ceiling windows. The primary suite claims the quiet northern end of the floor, with room to breathe, a custom-fitted walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath appointed with a double vanity, a deep soaking tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower. Thoughtful systems make daily life effortless: a Control4 home-automation system, a private laundry room with a full-size washer and dryer, and two-zone central air throughout. At 50 Madison Avenue, only nine residences share one of downtown's most coveted addresses. This full-service building offers an attended lobby with a full-time security guard and a part-time superintendent. Just outside the door, you'll find the best of the city: Eleven Madison Park, Scarpetta, Eataly, and the Clocktower at The Edition, with premier shopping and transit moments away.
