Welcome to 3659 Madison Street! This charming brick ranch offers a wonderful opportunity for new owners to add their personal touch and restore its full potential. Hardwood floors grace the living room, hallway, and main-level bedrooms, while abundant natural light fills every room thanks to thermal-pane windows throughout. The spacious eat-in kitchen includes all appliances and provides the perfect setting for everyday living and casual gatherings. The full basement expands the living space with a comfortable family room, third bedroom, and a convenient 3/4 bath. A dedicated laundry area-currently equipped as a second kitchen-offers excellent flexibility for related living or extended guest accommodations. Outdoors, enjoy a generous backyard with a paver patio and plenty of space to relax or entertain. A side drive (one of few in the area) leads to a 1.5-car detached garage for added convenience. Conveniently located, it's less than a mile/3 minute drive to the new South Shore station. A fantastic opportunity in a desirable setting-this well-maintained estate property is being sold as-is. Bring your vision and make this home shine once again!
