Beach lovers take note! Precious cape with a 0.50 acre private lot brings a lifestyle and opportunity to the buyer who has always dreamed of living by the beach. Toes in the sand private beach is just a stone's throw away and makes this residence extra special. So much potential here to make this New England cape your own. Although field card states 2 bedrooms, the upper level lends itself to turning the "den" space into an additional bedroom (newer septic tank is 1000 gallon - sized for three bedrooms). Entryway opens to the large living room with wood burning fireplace; living room spills into the generous dining room, a perfect place to entertain. You will certainly fall in love with the expansive screened-in porch - space you will find yourself enjoying most everyday - weather permitting. Kitchen is light and bright with newer appliances. Primary bedroom with full bath and oversized laundry room that can certainly house a powder room complete the 1st level of the home. Upper level is home to the second bedroom, common bathroom and den/office space. Full, dry unfinished basement offers plenty of storage. Large, level and private rear lot is a rare find this close to the beach. Oversized two car garage is large enough for taller vehicles - what seems to be a requirement for most drivers today. This residence is located close to Madison's charming center, restaurants, commuter routes and train station. Only two hours to NYC or Boston.
