Description

Have you ever walked into a house and it just felt right? Perhaps you said it had "soul". 936 Boston Post Rd is one of those few soul houses-a place where you immediately feel at peace, a home where you were meant to be. The views of Fence Creek, the privacy of the property, the front row seat to nature, and the absolute charm of the house may have the same effect on you. The first floor's open floor plan is gracious and practical, with fireplaces at opposite ends of the large living & dining space....Have you ever walked into a house and it just felt right? Perhaps you said it had "soul". 936 Boston Post Rd is one of those few soul houses-a place where you immediately feel at peace, a home where you were meant to be. The views of Fence Creek, the privacy of the property, the front row seat to nature, and the absolute charm of the house may have the same effect on you. The first floor's open floor plan is gracious and practical, with fireplaces at opposite ends of the large living & dining space. Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors showcase the views, with one opening to a spacious deck and another to a large patio, both ideal for outdoor entertaining or quiet moments. The kitchen has counter seating and top-of-the line appliances with views of the marsh that will spur volunteers to do the dishes. There is also a guest room on this level with its own "Zen" rain shower bath. On the second floor, in the primary bedroom suite, you will awake to a magnificent view of the marsh. It offers two bathrooms and an extensive walk-in closet. Two other bedrooms share an add'l bath. The laundry is conveniently on this level. The manicured gardens have a secret: a good-sized hidden, heated in-ground swimming pool with privacy landscaping, bluestone terracing, and a pergola. The property is located on a private lane well away from the main road, though downtown Madison, with its famed bookstore, movie theater, modern library, and excellent restaurants, are all within a five-minute walk.
