Don’t choose between a quite retreat and a big house on a hill. Get both with a 4-bed/3-bath + office home nestled behind tall trees, across the street from preserved greenspace. Inside find huge rooms for the kitchen, dining room, living room, and family room — all modernized without losing mid-century charm. Master suite features giant walk-in closet and bath with soaker tub and glass-door shower. The master and another bedroom each have private access to the back deck and pool. Other fine touches include a marble fireplace, stainless appliances, and custom cabinets.
