— The Details —
This Italianate-style townhouse built in 1870 offers a rare combination of prime location, architectural character, and standout amenities. Whether you’re visiting for a weekend getaway, a family trip, or an extended stay, Madison Manor I is designed for relaxation, connection, and memorable experiences. Inside, historic charm meets modern comfort with exposed brick and thoughtful décor. The well-equipped kitchen includes pantry basics and everything you need for easy meals at home.
Curated spaces throughout the home invite you to unwind after a day of exploring. Spend evenings soaking in the hot tub beneath pergola café lights, gathering around the fire pit, or enjoying movies, games, and friendly competition indoors. The home is pet-friendly, making it easy to include your four-legged companion on riverside strolls or hikes at nearby Clifty Falls. Thorough cleaning protocols between guests ensure a spotless and sparkling stay.
