About This Home

As of March 2018

Something so rare on the North Shore -- a renovated Country Estate situated on 3 acres surrounded by more beauty than one can take in. This unrivaled home has been updated and expanded over the years with quality seldom seen. The gorgeous pool & 2 cabanas (kitchen & bath), the secluded guest quarters, the wonderful conservatory, the newer Christopher Peacock kitchen which opens to a stunning paneled family room with a wet bar, the gracious formal rooms, the scenic & pastoral grounds and setting....the list goes on and on. The "Great Room" is unprecedented and the 3-season room with its floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is spectacular. Sixth bedroom is full suite with own entrance, kitchen and full bath. It's all so fabulous that words can't quite describe this home and property. It's a rare offering and something very special -- really, a once in a lifetime opportunity.
