36 colby hill

Much more than a cozy, artsy cottage, this property has views of Mount Chocurua from a large bench swing overlooking a vined garden. A hand-crafted bridge over a natural path from the top of the property flows down towards the cellar ruins of one of the first Madison homes circa 1800 near 113. You’ll be charmed by the peaceful surroundings of this truly unique retreat, pleasantly set back from road on a 2.5 acre+ lot. The home enjoys 1200 square feet of living space. The 400 square feet on the main level could be used as an oversized bedroom, office, rec room or private studio, with a half bath, laundry area and convenient garage door which opens to a double carport to load supplies, etc. The top floor features an additional 800 square feet with an open dining/living area, a bright and airy kitchen, an amply sized main bedroom (with easy access to the outdoors) and a smaller sleeping space/office. The property was designed for low maintenance and expansion with a well-designed 4.5 septic plan, extensive ditching, a large, long-lasting driveway, all upgraded with underlying woven stabilization road fabric. The drilled well is deep, with a buried tank offering an endless supply of excellent water. There is a screened HUT in the woods, perfect for creative writing, painting or just a refreshing sleep. The 20x12 metal garage works well as storage for White Mountain recreational vehicles or a workshop. The property comes fully furnished and is ready for your enjoyment.
