Listing broker remarks

This exceptional five-bedroom residence sits on a picturesque, one-acre parcel in one of Sudbury's most idyllic neighborhoods. Featuring thoughtfully designed living spaces with 9-foot ceilings, wood flooring and elevated custom millwork, this home offers natural flexibility for the modern family needs of remote work, visiting guests, entertainment, and quiet enjoyment. The kitchen serves as the true heart of this home, opening to a breakfast room with a cozy gas fireplace and a bay window overlooking a spectacular rear yard and swimming pool, a perfect spot for everyday dining. The adjoining sunroom offers a special space to unwind. A private office is set away from the main household's daily rhythm. 5 bedrooms provide plenty of room for family and guests. Upstairs, a vaulted-ceiling bonus room is anchored by a picture window overlooking the pool and lush grounds, an enticing space for movie nights, and relaxation. A finished lower level adds further recreation space, as well as a large unfinished utility/workroom with direct access to the garage giving this home three distinct levels of living. The renovated kitchen features custom, solid-wood, inset cabinetry with roll-out drawers, and professional-grade appliances. It is a bright, well-maintained space equally suited to everyday family life and serious entertaining. All of the bathrooms have been beautifully renovated, including a sumptuous primary bath with marble finishes and a walk-in shower. The essential systems have been updated, including the roof, driveway, exterior paint, and mechanicals. Buyers can move in and focus on personal touches to make this home their own. Outside, an entertaining area surrounds the heated pool with southern exposure, and set against a beautifully fenced and private, wooded backdrop. Atkinson Lane is within walking distance to Sudbury's renovated community center and pool, and Haskell Sports & Recreation Fields, making this location and neighborhood a true gem.— William Raveis R.E. & Home Services
