About this House

Write a great novel or just read one in this unique bungalow retreat. Walk to the deep, sandy beach just down the street from this charming, year-round, renovated beach cottage! Adjacent to acres of salt marsh and with a view of the Faulkner Island lighthouse, this 1930s getaway underwent a significant renovation in 2014 with a new foundation elevated to FEMA standards, new septic, new and raised roof, new HVAC and much more. Enter via a large (280 s.f.) screen porch which is sure to be the focus of rest and relaxation. The double height, open plan includes a living area with hardwood floors, a handsome, stone wood-burning fireplace, a well thought out kitchen with an island and a dining area. Two bedrooms and one full bath complete this level. A generous sized (672 s.f.) loft with clerestory windows offers the opportunity for multiple uses like overflow guests, office, den or studio. There is also an unfinished basement and an outdoor shower, perfect to rinse off the salt and sand before you watch the sun go down. Downtown Madison with its restaurants, shops, movie theater and bookstore is a five minute drive. NB: The 280 s.f. screen porch is not included the 1512 s.f. estimated by the town.
