18 Roosevelt Rd, Medford

Listing broker remarks

Welcome to “The Rock" at 18 Roosevelt Rd: A masterwork of "Eloquent Simplicity" inspired by the owner’s close friendship with architect Pietro Belluschi. Carved from a solid granite ledge, this unique 4-level hybrid of split-level and split-entry design exists in total harmony with nature. The exterior features an "armor-plated" shield of solid concrete siding for ultimate fire resistance and structural mass. The heart of the home is a vast 1,500+ SF common area offering dramatic visibility to the bedroom level and sun-room below, ensuring the family remains "within reach". Bathed in light from 6 skylights, the interior boasts seamless Travertine floors—the same premium stone found in the Vatican and Juilliard. An entertainer’s dream, the massive patio features a signature brick fireplace/barbecue overlooking 13k SF of protected land. Steps from the 2,500-acre Middlesex Fells with Boston skyline views, this sanctuary fuses Roman materials with "engineering-first" durability— Keller Williams Realty Boston-Metro
