Beautiful property with direct access to the Long Island Sound. Stunning views at low tide when tidal pools around boulder rocks are exposed. We had fun finding hermit crabs, prawns, and snails. We enjoying going to Hammonasset Beach State Park which is a short drive away. Quaint town and lovely neighborhood. The owner is very responsive.

Beach getaway

All three generations thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Having grown up in Madison, it was fun to stay in one of the original beachhouses I remember from my childhood, and to show my grandchildren around town. The kids particularly loved swimming and exploring the rocks and tidal pools - just as my siblings and I did so many years ago!

We fell in love with the view and it’s proximity to everything Madison has to offer. Located on one of the best streets in Madison. Walking or biking distance to everything. This classic New England cottage has original charm and we knew we could keep the charm and add to it with our renovation. Plenty of room to park and beautiful lawn between home and the Long Island Sound.
