This is an environmentally planned private neighborhood, where the homes are made to blend in with the wooded surroundings. This home is on a cul de sac of ten freestanding houses. Bassett Brook runs through the backyard, into a pond filled with fish, birds and wildlife. Trout Farm Lane hosts 70 more homes, townhouses and a few condo units. Each home owns their own yard. In addition, the neighborhood jointly owns 18 acres of wooded walking trails, the pond, a professionally-kept swimming pool, tennis courts and clubhouse. The very low fee of $1320 per year covers all amenities, plus weekly trash pickup and all snow removal, and a professional management team. When started in 1978, the Trout Farm community was primarily older residents with fewer young children. In recent years, more families have moved in as they see how affordable this neighborhood can make moving into the Duxbury school system, one of the best in the state. Of the ten houses on Bassett Brook Lane, three homes have children. This is a quiet, lovely neighborhood, only one mile from the highway and close to a commuter rail station 5 miles away. The seven-mile-long Duxbury beach is 10 minutes away. The town has superior schools, a magnificent Senior Center, new library, new performance center, gorgeous yacht club, golf course, Historical Society and numerous social clubs. Plimoth Plantation is 10 miles away; Cape Cod is 22 miles to the south. Boston is 35 miles to the north. For quality of living, nothing beats Duxbury, affectionately known as "Deluxebury".
