Affordable Housing Has Never Looked This Good
Sleek spaces, downtown views, and virtually staged tours — all without breaking the bank (or braving the cold).
Let’s face it: the words “affordable housing” don’t always conjure up visions of downtown views, walk-in closets, or stylish finishes. But let’s just say… The Madison Mark is here to change that narrative.
Located in Madison’s First Settlement neighborhood, just one block from Capitol Square, The Madison Mark brings together the impossible trio: location, style, and affordability. These are Downtown Madison apartments that don’t just check the boxes; they scribble all over them with a Sharpie.
Virtually Tour Your Future Apartment (From Under a Blanket)
Winter in Wisconsin? Bold move to go apartment hunting in that. Fortunately, The Madison Mark offers virtually staged apartment photos, so you can get a feel for your future home without freezing your face off. Zoom in on that walk-in closet. Envision your couch under those oversized windows. Pretend you’re sipping coffee while enjoying your Capitol view. All without leaving your heated blanket.
So, What’s Inside?
The Madison Mark’s income-restricted units include everything you need to live well (and look good doing it):
- Full appliance package (yes, including in-unit washer & dryer)
- Energy-efficient features
- Stainless steel or Energy Star appliances
- Barstool-ready counter seating for your low-effort dinner parties
- LVP flooring plus cozy carpet in the right places
- Some units with balconies, Capitol views, or both (hello, Instagram)
Basically, these aren’t your average apartments for rent. These are apartments in Madison, WI that look and feel like they belong in a glossy lifestyle mag, without the glossy rent price.
Let’s Talk Numbers (the Good Kind)
Through The Madison Mark’s Affordable Rent Program, income limits vary by household size (see the full chart on our website). Rent remains below market, but the finishings and location feel high-end.
Location Perks That Are Honestly Unfair
We’re talking walkable access to:
- Farmers’ markets and food trucks
- Lakeshore trails for walking off those food trucks
- Coffee shops that know your order
- Restaurants, parks, shops, and even buses if you want to venture further
You’re also one elevator ride away from a rooftop terrace, billiards table, fitness center, and complimentary coffee bar. (Which may or may not make you more productive. We’re not judging.)
If you’re looking for apartment rentals in Madison, Wisconsin that make downtown living not just possible, but delightful, The Madison Mark is a solid bet. Whether you're searching for apartments near Madison’s Capitol or just want your next place to come with style and a side of savings, you might want to check out the virtually staged apartment before the next snow hits.
