9 Madison Avenue

Jewel of a property located in desired Oneonta West End neighborhood! From the moment you step onto the mahogany floored classic front porch with easy care vinyl rails, what will come to mind are the adjectives that describe this entire home and property: loving care, quality craftsmanship, and character! Open the door to the living room and you are greeted by gleaming hardwood floors and an open chestnut woodwork staircase. The dining room also features hardwood and handsome crown moldings, and the oak kitchen has appliance upgrades, storage pantry plus corner pantry, and an oversized counter with stools which service the large family room! This large-scale family room has hardwood, a gas fireplace with built-ins, and a quality slider to a large rear deck! You will love the convenience of the first floor bath with pedestal sink and custom storage area! Upstairs, the primary 2-room bedroom features a large closet plus four knee-wall closets. The second floor bath features a country-style b-board finish with marble lavatory. Natural woodwork and hardwood floor finishes complete the picture upstairs! Basement level features finished laundry room and rec-room with wall to wall carpet, bult-in counter and bookcases. Basement level shop is ideal for use as-is, or would be perfect for dry storage. Radon system has been installed. From first floor family room, step out onto the beautifully maintained deck to a true secret garden! High half-trellis provides deck shade and sets the tone for the plantings and landscaping features that make the perimeter and yard space of this home so special: unusually generous backyard is filled with mature trees, shrubbery, plantings, and a combination of private spaces and open lawn for your garden, play space, or simply to unwind from the deck looking down onto your quarter acre "secret garden". Must be seen!
