Description

The charm and warmth of a Nantucket-style home splendidly highlighted throughout this 5200 sq,ft shingle style antique farmhouse/colonial. A thoughtful blending of the original design along with many wonderful enhancements added during renovations. In addition to the formal entrance, the "greeting room" with antique French limestone, leads to an open design, featuring a gourmet kitchen with fireplace and breakfast nook, living room, spacious dining room, two office areas, and family room with skylights and French doors leading out to a private stone patio. Three staircases provide access to the four bedrooms, which include a spacious master bedroom with luxurious bath, and a private guest suite over the barn. The lower level is finished with a media room, exercise room, and storage area. This "signature" property is complete with landscaped grounds and lighting, fire pit, outdoor shower and an attached barn offering not only parking, but a paneled entertainment area for summer fun!

    "Sherborn loves animals. Folks here keep an eye out for missing cats dogs goats and sheep v vi Next-door AP which is very popular "
  • S. Frederick
    "Lived for a few years. Friendly community members, beautiful country walks available, and good schools. Enjoy commuting by commuter rail to Boston."
  • Alex C.
    "A private suburban sanctuary in the woods, but still a short drive to a major shopping area and all the city of Boston has to offer."
  • Laurel M.
    "The commute into the city is not great during rush hour. But the town is a great place to raise kids and I couldn’t think of a better place to grow up! "
  • Sherborn3
    "I love the natural beauty and serenity of this town! Who can argue with top-notch schools combined with rural loveliness and the best pond in the state? Being a friendly small town, there is a strong sense of community. If you like McMansions everywhere with all the trees removed around them and ability to hear your neighbors' arguments, Sherborn is not for you. If you like green and you like privacy, it is for you! Very close to commuter rail and all that Natick has to offer without the negatives of that town."
