The Robert Murdock Homestead, magnificently sited at the top of a hill with glorious mountain vistas, inspiring sunrises, big skies, amazing rainbows, chirping boblinks, and peace of place. The light-infused home is an artful blend of old and new, with a 1990s seamless addition that has walls of glass overlooking Mt. Wachusett and 20 acres of rolling meadows and grassy pastures, and direct access to more than 100 acres of wooded trails where equestrians, deer, turkeys and moose meander through the seasons. There are 3 bedroom suites, each with a private bath. Recent updates include a 3-year-old high-end Buderus Logano boiler, propane cooktop, 2-year-old roof, and new central vac. The lower level of the 6-year-old barn could be adapted to accommodate horses; the upper level has a large finished space for an office or playroom. A country estate for horsemen, hobbyists, or gentlemen farmers, it offers a restful haven only 15 minutes from Rte. 2 and 35 minutes to downtown Worcester.
