57 New Rd, Madison, CT 06443

An unusual find close to the center of Madison. So close you you can walk to town. The location offers convenient access to the commuter train station, the I-95 interchange and all that Madison offers - shopping, beaches, library and recreation.The house is an authentic 1920's craftsman style four bedroom two story cottage with a large barn,an outbuilding and an in-ground pool. The level acre plus lot provides ample space to play and enjoy the garden. The many large trees on the property create a wonderful sense of privacy for a property so close to town.It is a more spacious house than the the 1911 square feet the town records imply. First there is the almost 300 square foot covered porch across the front. Then there is a 450 square foot finished recreation room in the basement and for added storage, a 900 square foot walk up attic. Wood floors throughout and traditional craftsman style wood trim around windows and doors give a sense of warmth.The understated country kitchen is at the heart of the house with quality wood cabinets and high end appliances. There is a side door leading to the garden and a mud room with a half bath leading to the rear entrance.The dining room, living room and cozy sitting room are all accessed from the kitchen as are the stairs to the basment with the finished recreation room.This house is a wonderful alternative for those who want something distinctive yet traditional. Come see for yourself.
