A delightful antique, remodeled in 1991 with large addition & featured in Better Homes & Garden Magazine. The "C.H. Carstenen" Home, c. 1850. This charming Greek Revival home is sited close to town on a large treed parcel with views overlooking Fence Creek, Hummers Pond and beautiful mature plantings. Nature and a country setting surround this re-imagined historic house. Fence Creek meanders through a gorgeous yard w/ trellised, lighted rose garden. Town records indicate an even earlier timeframe (1789) but researchers point to the mid-19th century as the more evident period of construction. Talented architect Duo Dickinson artfully opened and expanded the home to meet today’s needs. Newer kitchen appliances, fresh paint, carpet and a new roof. A successful marriage of old and new, this home retains warm original wood floors and period window styles along with modern features and comforts. The lower level is ideal for storage or exercise space and has a private entrance. A vaulted ceiling with skylight, french doors and 2 palladian windows in the spacious master suite adds drama and brightness. The spacious deck and covered porch are ideal for entertaining. Stone walls and gardens. Easy walk to Madison’s beaches and village, close to the train and I-95. There is LIMITED ACCESS for showings while tenant in place until end of May.
