Privately set on over 5 acres, this home offers a rare balance of space, comfort, and flexibility. A two-story foyer welcomes you into bright, easy living spaces that flow naturally from one room to the next. The kitchen sits at the center of the home, opening to multiple gathering areas where two fireplaces add warmth and character. Upstairs, four well-sized bedrooms including a primary suite with cathedral ceilings and dual closets, offer room to live, work, and grow. Outdoor living feels like an extension of the home, with a large composite deck overlooking tree-lined grounds, a fenced-in area, hot tub, and plenty of space to relax or entertain. Ideally located just moments from Stiles Pond with access to the residents-only beach. Thoughtful updates throughout provide peace of mind while still leaving room to make it your own. A unique opportunity to enjoy privacy and space without sacrificing convenience, with easy access to surrounding towns and a manageable commute into Boston.
