Set on an immaculate, waterfront property in Madison, this charming, three-bedroom Cape offers unobstructed views of Long Island Sound throughout its bright and spacious rooms. Inside, an accommodating open floor plan, a brick fireplace, and a stunning master bedroom with spectacular views are just a few of numerous features that catch the eye. Best of all, a stretch of private, sandy beach awaits, steps from the home.

Visitors to this completely renovated home are brought through an entryway into the open and airy 9 x 15 family room, where gleaming hardwood floors shine underfoot and extensive windows take advantage of the fantastic views. This room opens onto the lovely 13 x 14 living room, which is supplied with a fireplace for cozy winter evenings.

The bright 12 x 14 dining room offers a formal area that easily accommodates both family gatherings and intimate

dinner parties, complete with a built-in hutch. Those seeking a casual nook for dining will delight in the remodeled 10 x 15 kitchen, which offers a pleasant eat-in area. The kitchen offers white cabinets and warm, wood countertops with more than ample storage and surface space. A separate laundry area and a lovely half bath complete the first floor.

Upstairs, one finds an exquisite 13 x 17 master bedroom with wainscoted walls, cedar closets under the eaves, and gorgeous ocean views. The second floor also features two additional bedrooms, both with hardwood floors-one measures a spacious 10 x 11 and the other is of the same dimensions as the master bedroom.

In addition to the half bathroom on the first floor, one can find a generously sized full bathroom on the second floor.

The professionally landscaped, quarter-acre property boasts sweeping views of Long Island Sound and Faulkner's Island, meandering brick walkways set in a gracious, well-manicured lawn, and a private, sandy beach in this exclusive beach community.

This home also includes a basement, central air, and a detached two-car garage with a loft area for storage.

This home is being offered by Coldwell Banker for $1,100,000. For information and a showing, contact Amy Kirst at 203-245-4700, ext. 203 or amy.kirst@cbmoves.com, or call
