Originally built in 1910, 198 Madison is a newly renovated home that beautifully blends high-end finishes, modern technology, and meticulous craftsmanship—a respectful homage to its historic brownstone roots.
This elegant four-story residence features six bedrooms, four full bathrooms, two powder rooms, a spacious parlor deck, and a generous backyard garden. With wide-plank herringbone oak floors and a thoughtful layout, the home reflects quality and attention to detail throughout.
The grand entry begins with an oversized half-glass original door leading into a striking foyer. The parlor floor is bright and airy, with 10-foot ceilings that enhance the expansive living and dining areas. Custom-built-ins and intricate molding add warmth and character, while the kitchen impresses with a large island, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, and a full suite of Thermador appliances—including a microwave drawer. Full-glass double doors at the rear open to the deck, offering peaceful views of the lush garden.
On the upper levels, five bedrooms and four full bathrooms provide space and flexibility. The primary suite overlooks the backyard and features three windows, a cozy reading nook, and a walk-through closet. The en-suite bath is a private retreat with marble tile flooring, a double vanity, a glass-enclosed rain shower, and a deep soaking tub. An adjacent bedroom works perfectly as a nursery or office, while three additional bedrooms on the third floor benefit from skylights and are accompanied by two more bathrooms.
The finished basement, accessible via an interior staircase, includes tile flooring and a half bath—ideal for a media room, play space, or studio. A garden-level two-bedroom, one-bathroom suite with a kitchenette offers versatile options for guests, an au pair, or incoming producing space.
Located on a beautiful, tree-lined street at the border of Bedford-Stuyvesant and Clinton Hill, this thoughtfully reimagined townhouse is moments from local favorites like Pilar, StoneFruit, Hart’s, Golda, and Do or Dive. Outdoor lovers will enjoy Von King Park nearby, and commuting is convenient with the A/C and G trains, the Halsey B26 bus, and JFK Airport all within easy reach.
