Downtown Madison's most adorable mid-century brick ranch with guest cottage just hit the market and it's ready for you to come home! The meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated main dwelling offers one level living with convenience to all that the heart of Madison has to offer. Close proximity to parks, shopping, dining, pickleball courts, and more make this property one you don't want to miss! Walking through the front door, you'll be greeted by a combination formal living room with brick fireplace & dining room. The foyer area opens beyond the living room to a family room with a second large brick fireplace, a period appropriately renovated kitchen with charming aqua subway tile backsplash and heart pine cabinetry, as well as a designated laundry room and separate storage room. All updates to the home have been made with integrity of its history in mind, keeping a cozy mid-century modern feel throughout. To the left of the foyer, there are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, complete with original tubs, pedestal sinks, toilets, and 1950s tile. Inside one of the secondary bedrooms are two bookcases salvaged from the old high school and the family room features an inset media nook with wooden paneling that was also salvaged from the school. Custom wooden blinds adorn every window on the property, ensuring privacy at the twist of a handle. A breeze way accessed by the back door leads you to the guest cottage, which was constructed in the early 1960s. The guest cottage features a studio-style living area, kitchenette, and full bath with original tub, tile, and sink. A new bamboo pergola, new paved patio, and new wooden privacy fence installed in 2024 enclose part of the back yard, creating the perfect retreat. Recent updates to the property include new roofs (2020) on both dwellings, new gutters, a new wood burning fireplace insert, and kitchen renovation (2021.) The mini split was installed in the cottage in 2020.
