About this home

Set atop a scenic esker OVERLOOKING FARRAR POND, this distinctive property blends MODERNIST ARCHITECTURE with a rare connection to the natural landscape. Composed of two lots, the property includes both the house lot and a separately deeded waterfront non-buildable peninsula offering direct access to Farrar Pond. This unique configuration supports many different lifestyles and direct enjoyment of the shoreline setting. Historic cart paths connect the peninsula lot with the main property and South Great Road, while high-bush blueberries and wild azaleas add seasonal beauty. The MAIN HOUSE, an original Acorn Structure, was designed to draw the outdoors in, with clean contemporary lines, an open floor plan, walls of glass, and picturesque views of the inviting woodlands with glimpses of the pond beyond. Both the spacious 2-story living room with custom fireplace surround and a wall of bookcases, and its adjoining dining room, open to the pond-oriented deck. Expansive glass reinforces the home’s modernist character, while the upper-level primary suite with loft retreat and walk-out lower level with two additional bedrooms provide separation and versatility. Across the courtyard is the ACCESSORY BUILDING which houses an apartment/studio, two-car heated garage, and heated workshop. Carefully engineered into the site, this separate building adds meaningful flexibility for guests, studio use, projects, equipment, storage, or hobbies. Set back 400 ft +/- from the main road, the residence with its glorious western sunsets from its elevated setting, DIRECT POND ACCESS from the waterfront lot, an ACCESSORY APARTMENT, heated WORKSHOP, and distinctive architectural character is a rare property, offering natural beauty, and contemporary appeal near conservation land, town amenities, shopping, rail access, and miles of trails. Retreat to this captivating property, where memories can be made year-round.
