Property details

About 131 Madison Ave

Built in 1906, this remarkable residence is a cornerstone of Skowhegan's architectural legacy. After a period of vacancy and deterioration, the property has been thoroughly restored, meticulously brought back to life with exceptional attention to detail. As you enter, you'll be welcomed by the atmosphere of a freshly revitalized home that retains the original charm and elegance of the early 20th century. The restoration preserved key elements like the leaded glass foyer, the grand sliding pocket door in the parlor, the original fireplace mantel, handcrafted wood floors, and parts of the majestic staircase. Every detail, from the ornate interior doors to the intricately designed sheetrock and baseboard trim, showcases a commitment to the home's storied past. While many original features have been lovingly maintained, the house now includes modern conveniences. The brand-new kitchen features solid surface counters and stainless steel appliances, and the two and a half bathrooms have been completely updated. Luxurious details abound, such as a tile floor in the primary suite and the convenience of a washer and dryer on the second floor. Combining efficiency and elegance, the home includes state-of-the-art features comparable to new constructions. The basement and attic ceiling are outfitted with spray foam insulation for maximum energy efficiency. Other significant updates include a new roof, an on-demand heating system, oversized double-hung vinyl windows, and modernized plumbing, electrical systems, and siding. Additional highlights enhance the property's allure, including a partially finished third floor ready for your personal touch, a carriage house with potential for expansion, a wrap-around driveway, and an inviting covered porch. This is a rare opportunity to own a perfect blend of historic grandeur and contemporary comfort. A detailed list of renovations and restorations is available.
