Circa 1840 A Timeless Madison Treasure Step back in time and own a remarkable piece of Madison's history. Constructed around 1840 by John Richard Gooding and proudly featured in The Historic Homes of Madison, this well-maintained Colonial residence pre-dates the Civil War and is rich with architectural character and enduring charm. From the moment you arrive, the classic columned front porch and double front doors with a transom window set the tone for what awaits inside. Beautiful Heart Pine and Oak floors run throughout the home, complemented by crown molding, original woodwork, and six fireplaces (currently sealed) that reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Inside, you'll find a grand foyer, a cozy family room with wood stove, and a formal living room. The large country kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and gathering space, while the sunroom provides a bright and peaceful retreat. Front and rear winding staircases lead to three spacious bedrooms and a full bathroom, preserving the historic layout while offering comfortable living. Outdoor living is just as special — a large deck connects to the original first Madison Schoolhouse, creating a truly unique extension of the property. Additional exterior features include a detached 1-car garage, woodshed, storage shed, oversized .80-acre lot, and a new roof for added peace of mind. Ideally situated in the heart of Madison, conveniently located between Charlottesville and Culpeper, you can even watch the town parade from your own porch. Walking distance to grab a bite to eat. This is more than a home — it's a legacy. Own a piece of history and make it part of your story
