25 Skytop Drive

This very desirable cul-de-sac neighborhood is located just north of the town center and has easy access to the famous Madison beaches, shops, restaurants, and transportation (highway and commuter train.) As a 1966 reproduction of the Jonathan Murray House, built in Madison in 1690, 25 Skytop Dr. shares the features of the several rows of clapboard above the entrance which gives this Cape-style home its distinctive presentation. The home features a large center chimney with a fireplace in the large, front-to-back living room/dining room and a second fireplace in the family room located in the lower level walkout basement. The kitchen has a newer oak floor and painted cabinets. There is a cozy den with built-in bookshelves and painted wainscoting. A distinctive feature in the main level rooms is the beaded boxed corners. A feature often found in 17th and 18th-century homes. A few steps down from the kitchen are the stairs to the lower level with access to the family room and an adjacent full bath. There is access from this room to the patio. The unfinished part of the basement has great storage. There are two, two-bay garages. Upstairs, there are two very large bedrooms with a second floor full bath. At the back of the house is a nicely sized deck. The yard has mature trees and many flowering shrubs. This home is sited between Boston and NYC and only 20 minutes from New Haven. Beautifully maintained and in move-in condition, 25 Skytop Dr. is a rare find in Madison, CT.
