123 W Washington Ave Ave

The Loraine is a historic, midrise condominium conversion completed in 2004 and located one block from Madison’s Capitol Square. Comprised primarily of one-bedroom plans with flexible den or guest-room layouts, units showcase period-inspired millwork and contemporary finishes: maple or birch hardwoods, tray and cathedral ceilings, fireplaces, granite or solid-surface counters, stainless appliances, and in-unit laundry. Many residences include walk-in closets, generous storage lockers, built-ins, and high ceilings with large windows that frame downtown and Capitol views. Common places emphasize refined communal living — an elegant lobby, secure elevator access, a landscaped courtyard and shared balcony/roof areas, plus a community room and direct entry to a ground-floor coffee shop. Exterior features include private entries, patios or decks for select units, and underground heated parking spaces; some listings note assigned storage and garage spaces. Building services and systems support modern urban lifestyles with cable/high-speed internet availability, central vacuum, security/intercom, and water-softening/humidifier equipment in select homes. Pet-friendly policies, proximity to restaurants, theaters, farmers’ markets, UW campus, and major cultural venues make this a downtown address for buyers seeking a combination of historic character and contemporary convenience.
