Set on 9 private acres and bordered by 160 acres of conservation land, this custom Colonial offers privacy and scale hard to find this close to town. Trails wind through the surrounding woods to a hidden pond, creating a true sense of retreat without sacrificing convenience. The house combines timeless, classic design with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, a balance few homes achieve. A gracious foyer opens to a formal dining room and a library/home office with custom wall-to-wall bookshelves. At the heart of the home, the great room with cathedral ceilings and a soapstone wood stove flows into a beautifully appointed kitchen with granite countertops, solid-wood cabinetry, a six-burner Wolf range, double ovens and a walk-in pantry. A breakfast nook and octagonal sunroom overlook the gardens and pool. Hardwood floors, custom moldings and solid doors add timeless craftsmanship. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and an expansive primary suite with a sitting area, dressing room, two walk-in closets and a large bathroom. A third-floor walk-up offers extensive storage and room to grow. The fully finished lower level includes a home theater, game room, hobby room/recording studio and laundry room. Outside, a hardscaped patio surrounds the heated gunite saltwater pool and spa, framed by landscaped gardens, mature plantings and striking Japanese maples. Steps away, the separate pool house offers a kitchen, bathroom, light-filled living area, upstairs loft, three-season porch and full basement. It offers remarkable flexibility for guests, extended family, creative pursuits or a home office. This distinctive property offers space to gather, room to breathe and an exceptional connection to nature, all minutes from Concord, Bow’s highly rated schools and commuter routes. Homes like this, with this much land, this much privacy and this much character, rarely come to market. This is a truly rare find.
