Description

Own a rare piece of Plainfield history at 944 Madison Avenue. This distinctive 3,900 sq ft residence was built in 1897 as the carriage house to the iconic Coriell Mansion, the largest home ever constructed in the Queen City. Located in the Van Wyck Brooks Historic District, the property offers architectural integrity and timeless character rarely found today. The home has been featured in architectural publications and on historic home tours. Original craftsmanship is showcased throughout, including high ceilings, exposed beams, French doors, original wainscoting, stained-glass accents, and leaded transom windows. 5 gas fireplaces add warmth and old-world charm. The kitchen features a Viking range, stainless steel appliances, and a layout designed for entertaining. A generously sized dining room flows seamlessly into the main living areas. Set far off the street, mature hedges provide exceptional privacy. Expansive front and side yards, a detached two-car garage, and inviting outdoor spaces complete the setting. A summer kitchen opens to a patio and screened porch for easy indoor-outdoor living. The ground level offers flexible rooms with a full bath, ideal for a studio, home office, or recreation space. The main living level includes a primary suite, guest bedroom, additional full bath, and open living and dining areas. The third floor provides an additional bedroom or office and a full walk-in attic. A truly exceptional opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind historic residence.
