Listing broker remarks

Set off a lovely cul-de-sac, this restored Greek Revival sits on 4+ acres of open field, rare this close to Boston, stretching out rather than closing in. The expansive field: open, level, and bordering the 7,000 acre Blue Hills Reservation, accessible and yours to explore. A buildable lot: room to expand, a family compound, simply hold as open space, you decide. Fine millwork and French doors speak to fine craftsmanship. The kitchen is anchored by top appliances and built for serious cooking. A well-appointed mudroom keeps the everyday beautifully managed. A glass-walled garden room with fireplace, woodland views and stillness. Modern systems (geothermal heating/cooling, solar array, EV charger) reflect a commitment to sustainability. Privacy and peace without sacrificing reach: commuter rail, Rts 128/95, and Logan Airport all close. Access to Milton's public and the area's prestigious independent schools. This is where sophistication, sanctuary, and the wide-open sky meet.— Ceres Real Estate
