When you arrive, the home’s rich wood accents, hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, fireplaces, and inviting flow create a warm and welcoming sense of place.

This private sanctuary offers an enviable blend of comfort, beauty, and convenience. The thoughtfully designed interior includes generously sized living and dining rooms, an expansive family room, office, and multiple spaces for gathering and entertaining. The kitchen features high-end stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, real wood cabinetry, breakfast bar for two, and a dedicated dining area. The oversized formal dining room accommodates extended gatherings and includes a wood-burning fireplace and built-in corner seating and storage. The inviting living room features a wood-paneled mantel and fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and abundant windows. Flowing directly from the rich wood side-entry, the oversized family room opens to the deck, seamlessly extending the living space outdoors during warmer months. Upstairs, four bedrooms, a full bath with laundry, and an office provide flexible living space. The spacious primary suite offers a private wing with an en-suite bath, walk-in shower with dual shower heads, wood-burning fireplace, and abundant closet storage. Outside, enjoy the views, deck, pool, patio, detached garage, ample parking, and generous storage. Located in the desirable Masconomet School District, this remarkable property is close to downtown Topsfield with convenient access to Routes 1 and 95. A rare opportunity to experience privacy, timeless character, and the beauty of historic Topsfield!
