It is perfectly set on prestigious Liberty Street and stretches from Hotchkiss Lane to Webster Point Road which provides easy access to a beautiful sandy beach just a block away. The oversized property is just over an acre, with professionally manicured gardens and extensive grounds with marsh views overlooking Hammonasset. It is also just across the street from the entrance to the Greenway Trail, which borders and leads into Hammonasset State Park and beach. The lovingly restored 3-bedroom main house has many original details and thoughtful updates including natural gas, city water, and central air. With original hardwood floors throughout, one exceptional feature is the period perfect stenciling in the living room. The formal dining room with custom hand painted mural, keeping room with one of two fireplaces, full kitchen with laundry, and screened porch. In addition to a bedroom and full bath on the first floor there are two bedrooms, each with en-suite bath, on the upper level. Set at the back of the property, the one bedroom guest house has many potential functions. With it's own kitchen and full bath, it can be used as a guest house, in-law residence, home office, au-pair suite, or possible rental. Ideally located South of Boston Post Road and a short hop to charming downtown Madison, this very special home is a rare find.
