About this home

Looking at Acton for more space or nationally recognized schools? You don’t have to sacrifice and settle for some bland little Colonial or Cape. Here is urbane Mid-Century-Modern style, with key updates and the level of maintenance you get with pride of ownership. The post-and-beam construction allows the flowing open floor plan to unfold from the welcoming entry, into the living and dining rooms, to a step-down kitchen open to the dining area. The kitchen has sleek floating cabinetry and updated appliances. The bedrooms and a striking bath have their own level, and the family room, another bath with a tiled stall shower, and a finished laundry room with plenty of storage is on the lower level. Stylish use of natural materials (stone, hardwood, slate floors) accent the symbiotic relationship of the design with the outdoors, tying together the natural setting with this special home. An open-concept, multi-level design by pioneering architect, Jack Sarness, nestled up on a half acre.
