1240 Dixie Highway

Timeless Design with a Rare Setting Traditional and perfectly suited to Madison, this William Poole-designed home captures the elegance of the historic homes downtown while offering a modern, highly livable floorplan-set on approximately 1.5 acres just outside the city limits. Opportunities like this are increasingly rare. Surrounded by mature landscaping and framed by peaceful rural views, the home offers the best of both worlds: the serenity of the countryside with the convenience of being just minutes from town-ideal for walking or even golf cart access. Inside, this custom-built residence features a formal dining room, beautiful hardwood floors, and a spacious great room with custom bookshelves, a vaulted ceiling and fireplace, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. The main-level owner's suite is generously sized and opens directly onto the wide back porch-perfect for enjoying quiet mornings and the changing seasons. The kitchen is both functional and welcoming, offering ample granite topped counter space, custom cabinetry, and a charming breakfast nook overlooking the expansive backyard. Just off the attached two-car garage, a well-designed mudroom and large utility room and additional storage provide everyday practicality. Upstairs, you'll find two ensuite bedrooms, a dedicated sewing or craft room, and a large bonus room over the garage. Two separate staircases provide convenient access to the upper level. This is a truly special property-one that seamlessly blends classic Southern architecture, modern comfort, and an unmatched setting. Homes like this seldom come to market in Madison.
