Another gorgeous home built by Paul J. Whitney! On a beautiful side street in the heart of the Middlesex Fells neighborhood, this home gives new meaning to the word "Unique." It offers two levels of living space with an open floor plan on the first floor which includes a large three season porch overlooking the back yard. On the lower level is a home office, bedroom and large play room plus the two car garage. There is a huge garage/barn behind the house which was built as a one car garage with an amazing hand-crafted workshop on the first floor. On the second floor is a large finished space, currently being used as a media room. Only minutes to major commuting routes, Muraco School, Leonard Field and the "Fells", the location doesn't get any better. Come and see this lovely home and custom garage/barn built with "Shiplap" construction". Fabulous!
