The main house, an expansive 5,500 square feet, boasts 3 spacious bedrooms and 3-and-a-half baths. Each bath seems plucked from the pages of a magazine, yet still honors its history. The kitchen, heart of the home, offers the same delicate balance – with wood beams and exposed brick paired effortlessly with gleaming new fixtures. Its modern design, replete with high-end appliances, gleams beneath the warmth of soft lighting, inviting family and friends to gather around. The two gas fireplaces in the dining-living areas add even more warmth, wrapping the home in an intimate, cozy atmosphere. Just off the living area a main floor library welcomes with a gas fireplace and full bath.
Outside, this property is nothing short of an estate. The sprawling lawn gives way to a traditional horse barn and paddock area, hinting at the deep equestrian roots of the land. Nearby, the in-ground pool shimmers, offering a cool respite on warm summer days, while a farmers porch overlooks the bluestone patio – a perfect spot for quiet evenings under the stars.
Yet, the home offers even more. An attached five-room carriage house above the barn with exposed beams provides both comfort and privacy for guests or as an apartment setting. Features 1.5 baths (one ensuite) plus a wood burning stove in the living area. A heated, four-car garage and an exercise studio hint at modern luxuries, ensuring no convenience is sacrificed.
Wenham itself, known for its tree-lined roads and sprawling farmland, embraces the best of both worlds: a quiet, rural charm with easy access to the North Shores beaches and amenities. Commuter routes and rail lines are close, yet 25 miles from Boston.
