About this home

Abutting Myopia Hunt Club, horse trails and champion golf! This exquisite property, with an impressive tree lined driveway, is set on 5+ acres of beautifully manicured grounds in the epicenter of horse country. Fully renovated in 2005 (to the studs) this spectacular Colonial Farmhouse has had two major additions, seamlessly added using reclaimed beams with the highest quality of craftsmanship. New custom tiled baths, wiring, plumbing, AC, radiant heat and windows are updated. A master bedroom suite was added to the first floor and enjoys walkout access to the bluestone terrace and gardens. The great room is gorgeous, with vaulted ceilings, massive exposed beams, a two story stone fireplace hearth, custom built-ins and a wall of glass streaming natural light all day long. There are 2 additional sitting rooms with beamed ceilings and fireplaces. Four spacious bedrooms are on the second level including a second master suite. The carriage house includes a 2 Bedroom apt & 2 car garage.

Spectacular home awaits you at the end of this tree-lined driveway. A full renovation (down to the studs) was done in 2005, restoring this exquisite farmhouse/colonial into a one-of-a-kind oasis in a magical setting.. Two gorgeous additions were seamlessly added using reclaimed beams and all updates were made with the highest quality craftsmanship and top of the line appliances/hardware. The wiring and plumbing was redone, air-conditioning and radiant heat added in most rooms, windows replaced, ceilings pushed up, beautiful tile work in all bathrooms. A screened-in porch was added overlooking the extensive blue stone terrace and sweeping lawn with mature trees, tree house, organic vegetable and flower gardens. All this AND a three bedroom carriage house with two garages and multiple sheds. Enjoy close proximity to shops and restaurants, Hamilton Schools and commuter rail . New town pool and park just steps away. Crane’s Beach and boating on the Essex River minutes away
