150 Race Hill Road, Madison, Connecticut

About 150 Race Hill Road

A rare and remarkably charming Antique in one of Madison's most picturesque settings. Set on 7+ acres along quiet Race Hill Rd, this beautifully preserved circa-1764 Cape blends centuries of character with thoughtful updates and the ease of modern living. Originally restored to the studs in 1996, the 2,091 sq.ft. main house retains an extraordinary amount of its original character, including chestnut flooring, period hardware, exposed beams and other details that give the home a wonderful sense of history. The floor plan is warm and inviting. The dining area opens to a family room with rustic beams, one of the original fireplaces and windows overlooking the private grounds. The family room, which could also work as a 1st floor bedroom, is highlighted by a 2nd original fireplace, built-ins and a full bath. The formal living room is distinguished with a 3rd fireplace, loads of windows and original cabinetry. A charming kitchen with cathedral ceilings and exposed beams, and a terrific sun room with a stone floor and private entrance complete the main living spaces. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms and a full bath. And then there is the guest cottage! A beautifully renovated, year-round 701 sq.ft. legal one-bedroom cottage, that is an exceptional addition to the property-ideal for guests, extended family, a private office or rental use. Thoughtfully refinished and entirely independent, the cottage adds a level of flexibility rarely found.
