Vintage charm in Madison/$489,900
230 Copse Road, Madison Beds: 4 Baths: 2 Square Feet: 2,352
Built in 1720, “The Redfield House” provides the rare opportunity to own a piece of Madison’s vibrant history. This stunning home exudes vintage charm and character and has been lovingly cared for and improved by the families that have owned it over the years. There are many nooks and crannies to explore — from the cozy sunroom to the huge, walk up attic. Updated kitchen and baths, two fireplaces that you will appreciate on cold evenings and two beautiful stained glass windows are just a few of the features you will enjoy. The property also boasts a 1,000-square-foot post-and-beam barn equipped with electricity and water. The home sits on just under a bucolic acre less than a mile from the town green and is located across from Bauer Park, which contains more than 60 acres of hiking trails and a community garden.
