This notable landmark Queen Anne Victorian home, best known as THE FAIRMOUNT HOUSE, sits eloquently at the top of Michigan Rd Hill, essentially in the center of Madison, IN. Some call it "The Castle on the hill". Offering amazing views of the Ohio River from the terrace lined w wrought iron fencing, and River views from inside the home, are just one of the incredible features this historic beauty possesses. The grounds alone are impressive as it admired by many passers by, perched on the hillside w almost 4 acres of private grounds, including a secluded inground pool oasis, a koi fish pond, a 3 bay carriage barn with loft, and an expansive field to roam and enjoy the peacefulness that is hard to find in the heart of a bustling small town. The house has impressive updates, yet retains its original flooring, doors, hardware, stained glass windows, fireplaces, and light fixtures. One of the most impressive features is the lighted newel post statue that greets you as you enter the staircase on the main level. It currently houses 6 (potentially 7) bedrooms and 3.5 baths. The beautiful slate roof and copper gutters were put on 6 years ago. The current owners have loved and enjoyed this home but have reached a point in their life where they are moving in a different direction and thus are offering it to a new owner to admire, love and enjoy! Pre-approval or proof of funds required before showings. Please do not drive up the driveway without an appointment as it is a private drive.
