Built in 1985! Rarely does a home capture the artistry and character of early New England architecture while offering the comfort and reliability of modern construction. This extraordinary antique REPRODUCTION, was thoughtfully crafted in the style of a Federal Colonial and set on an exceptional 400-foot-deep lot in the coastal town of Duxbury. Offering 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, the home showcases remarkable craftsmanship throughout, including hand-paneled walls (all with custom storage areas), wide-pine floors, soaring 10+ foot ceilings, intricate millwork, and a grand "wedding staircase" that serves as the home's architectural centerpiece. The inviting living room, anchored by a gas fireplace, flows seamlessly into the sun-filled kitchen and dining area, creating an ideal setting for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the spectacular primary suite is unlike anything else, featuring exposed beams and a breathtaking hand-painted circular rotunda beneath a dramatic cupola with custom windows that fills the space with natural light. Two additional spacious bedrooms, a beautifully appointed full bath, and second-floor laundry complete the upper level. Outside, discover a private backyard retreat surrounded by mature woodlands, professionally designed Japanese-inspired gardens, tranquil ponds, a putting green, golf practice area, and multiple outdoor spaces designed for peaceful relaxation with minimal maintenance. A large two-room garden shed provides excellent storage, while a brand-new roof (2026), updated systems, and Title V approval offer complete peace of mind. Just minutes from Sandbaggers Golf driving range, and a short drive to Duxbury's golf courses, Duxbury Beach, and many other area amenities, this is a truly one-of-a-kind residence where timeless craftsmanship, architectural significance, and an extraordinary setting come together in perfect harmony.
