This lovely property is more than a home --it's a lifestyle. Tucked into one of Madison's most sought-after communities at Windermere East, you'll feel at home the moment you enter the front door. The bright, open floor plan provides casual, coastline living at its best. The remodeled kitchen with granite counters, island and stainless appliances opens to the combination dining area and living room with its cozy gas fireplace. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, and you also have a second bedroom and full bath on the main level. The lower level provides additional living space for office, exercise or relaxation plus an area for a guest bedroom with a 3rd full bath and is heated by electric baseboard. For three seasons of the year, you'll love sitting out on the enclosed porch; or in the summer, you can dine al fresco on the charming private patio with its ivy-draped arbor. Madison residents enjoy access to town beaches including Hammonasset Beach State Park. The historic town center is a great place to stroll and stop in at a bookstore or outdoor cafe and watch the world go by. This property is ideal for anyone looking to enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle.
