The perfect house

Our family planned a last minute surprise birthday for a family member. We had children (7 and 10) and a host of adults in their 70s-30s staying the weekend, and 2 dogs. It never felt crowded. The beds are amazingly comfortable, the bare timber ceilings on the second floor, beautiful. Huge yard. Great fire pit. Jogging trail literally across the street. 10 minutes away from great local food and shopping. All kitchen amenities one could ask for. If you have a mobility challenged guest they may struggle with the natural stone walkways, the stairs from the driveway to the guest house, or the steep stairs may cause issues as we had one guest that found them challenging. This is an old house, beautifully renovated and modern inside, but the original build for mobility does not equate to modern standards (as one would expect). We plan on returning for many more family events! Kevin is amazing.

We had a great stay in Madison! The home was fantastic and it was the perfect middle point for our friends form Boston and NYC. So quick to do many great locations like the beach, restaurants and ice cream. We cannot wait to come back next year!

About the host

Hosted by Kevin

I'm originally from Montreal, Canada. Spent a few years traveling and living in different places & countries. UCONN alumni, and settled in Madison in 2003 where I've been a small business owner. We fell in love with this property the first time we saw it. The house was vacant for many years, so it was a labor of love updating & remodeling in the spring of 2021. We hope you love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is the closest to Hammonasset Beach State Park than any other. You can certainly drive the 1 mile, but the Greenway Trail is a beautiful wooded walking and biking trail just across the street that goes directly to the beach.

What makes this property unique

This property has 2 separate airbnb rentals on it... one is the main house that sleeps 8, and then this newly renovated, fully equipped carriage house apartment which is 50ft from the main house, has a private entrance and is located on the second floor. The only space shared between the 2 buildings is the driveway; you will have your own entrance, private outdoor patio set and fire-pit area. Relax and enjoy your stay!
