Step back in time and revel in the historic charm of this original 200-year-old brick house, lovingly positioned on a generous 3.6 acres in the serene village of Madison. This isn't just a home; it's a beautiful landmark, constructed by the hands of General Erastus Cleveland. Its allure lies in the perfectly preserved features, including rich wide-planked floors, five grand fireplaces, and an enchanting winding staircase.
In this home, beauty doesn't skirt on practicality. The kitchen blends history with contemporary touches, showcasing granite countertops, shiny stainless steel appliances, and even an original fireplace equipped with a traditional bread oven. The wistful beauty continues with crystal chandeliers and hand-painted stenciling and murals that paint a vivid picture of its rich history.
The three expansive bedrooms upstairs are a peaceful retreat, boasting ample light and space. The two bathrooms and a built-in bookcase nestled in a serene seating area in the hallway offer both comfort and practicality. The main floor is thoughtfully designed with an office, a laundry room, and a convenient half bath.
Step directly from your kitchen into an attached 3-season porch, a versatile extension of the living space that overlooks the vast backyard. Here's where the magic happens. A variety of fruit trees stitches colorful patches onto the landscape, while raised garden beds allow you to cultivate your own piece of nature. Enjoy relaxed outdoor living on the large stone patio, or ascend the treehouse for an elevated respite, a whimsical look-out deck bordering a babbling stream at the edge of the property.
This captivating home is more than a house; it's a timeless piece of history, a perfect blend of past and present, comfort and style. A rare find indeed, it offers not just a dwelling but a lifestyle, a chance to bask in the beauty of historic charm. This is the home where dreams come true. Welcome to your sanctuary of serenity!
