Truly the "Best of all worlds". This beloved home will not disappoint. It is situated on a winding country road, abutting conservation land, and has access to the south shore's premier beaches and bustling waterfront!! Much of the original character remains and features include three fireplaces, beamed ceilings, wide pine floors, secret cubbies, and built-in cabinets. The rooms are warm and spacious. The kitchen has a large eating alcove, fir floors, picture window, center island with soap stone counter and stainless appliances. It is imaginable that previous owner, Artist Charles A Mahoney, found some inspiration through the giant picture window overlooking this home's beautiful and private grounds. There is a fabulous flow from one room to the next and plenty of room for large gatherings. Come spring - the front garden will delight with its brick paved walkway, bright perennials, fragrant lilac, rose bushes and more!
