About This Home

As of April 2025

Whether you're enjoying the cozy fireplace in winter, or you're having a picnic on your deck in summer, this Ranch-style home is perfectly lovely! Set way back off the road, this three bedroom home is in mint condition and turnkey ready. Hardwood floors throughout allow for rug choices that match your decor. With central air, and three ceiling fans, summer comfort is a certainty. While the lower level family room is not heated, the current owner leaves the door to the furnace room open, allowing for year-long comfort. There is a "wall-less" half bath next to the washer/dryer hookups downstairs, as well. Another set of washer/dryer hookups are on the main floor, in the first bedroom closet. The eat-in kitchen is replete with stainless steel appliances and has sliders, with an automated awning, that lead to the deck. Enjoy all that Madison has to offer, at an incredibly reasonable price: Hammonasset State park, several other beaches, shopping and restaurants along Route 1 and easy access to the commuter train and I-95 are a few of the amenities. Plus, according to schooldigger.com, Daniel Hand High School is #8, out of #121.
