237 Madison Avenue PH1

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Living New York.

A lofted duplex is the defining layout at PH1, 237 Madison Avenue, and it gives the two bedrooms and three bathrooms two levels to work with. That split is a practical way to separate sleeping space from living space.

Marble countertops and a backsplash finish the kitchen, which is equipped with Meile appliances, a dishwasher and a microwave. Custom cabinetry, shades and lighting run through the apartment, and oak wood flooring sits underfoot.

Bathrooms are a strength here.

Each bathroom includes details such as an expanded glass-enclosed rain shower on light grey porcelain tile, a custom vanity with a white countertop, and a wall-hung vanity with Waterworks fixtures. The finish work is consistent across them, and you'll notice it every day.

Oversized windows bring in city views, and the Empire State Building is among what you can see. I like that the high ceilings add volume, which helps both levels feel open, and the layout gives you room to furnish in more than one way.

The in-unit LG washer and dryer mean you won't need the shared laundry in the building. The elevator, concierge, resident super, health club and roof deck cover the building side, so the day-to-day running of the home is well supported.

Bryant Park is about 5 minutes away on foot, and Grand Central-42 St is about 6 minutes away, served by the 4, 5, 6, 7 and S trains.
