Very close to Madison town center with its renowned beaches and quintessential town center, this house has a peaceful serenity yet an 'in-town' location so it is walkable and bikeable to town, beaches, shopping, restaurants, cinema; and the location offers easy commuting by highway or train (walk to train station). There are a great many comforts here: newly remodeled kitchen with maple Shaker-style quality cabinets, granite counters, recessed lighting, freshly painted inside and out, new Thermopane windows, a new roof, a new luxurious master bath with radiant heating in floor, and there's also a new hall bath. A cathedral ceiling in the living room highlights the fireplace. There is a wood burning stove there now which can remain or be removed. The sunroom off the kitchen is fully integrated to the house and is a lovely dining space and is a sunny sitting area overlooking the backyard and pond with its wonderful wildlife and plentiful birdlife. The lower level is finished with a family room for games or quiet. If you're wanting to downsize and live close to town this is the perfect house. It fits singles, empty nesters, families - a great find and is a wonderful alternative to a condo with easy upkeep, your own space and close to town.
