There are many attributes that combine to make this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home a real gem. Solidly built in 1947 - within walking distance to the center of Madison and its various amenities - the two-story home has been thoroughly updated and consistently maintained. For example, the kitchen has been remodeled to include new wood floors, Corian countertops, tile backsplash, maple cabinets, modern lighting and stainless-steel appliances. After a wall was removed, the living room and dining room are central to the main floor's open design, which features maple floors, crown molding and a gas stove/fireplace, as well as new Marvin custom windows and doors. The bedroom on this level is adjacent to a totally renovated bath with Wainscot walls and custom tiling. Upstairs, the primary and third bedrooms have new oak floors and share an updated bath. The hallway has easy access to a large storage area in the eaves. The HVAC system has been upgraded to include a high-efficiency gas furnace, three AC/heat mini-split units on both floors and on-demand hot water. The basement, with entry to the attached garage, includes a gas stove/fireplace and loads of storage cabinets and space. The decks on the front porch and off the mudroom feature composite boards, stairs and railings. The level backyard includes several gardens, blue stone patio with 3 seasonal shade sails, mature trees and shrubbery, automatic buried watering system and a sturdy Kloter Farms storage shed.
