    LEGACY MEETS LUXURY! AN ICONIC ESTATE EXUDES TIMELESS ELEGANCE! Welcome to the Schuster Mansion, a grand 1939 Colonial estate nestled atop a hill on forty three lush acres. Designed by renowned Boston architect Harry M. Ramsey celebrated for his work in Brookline and beyond, this grand home showcases exquisite period detail including intricate moldings, antique hardwoods, four fireplaces and three stunning primary suites with refreshed baths. Once home to industrialist Winfield Schuster, famous for turning down a one million dollar deal to buy the Red Sox, this estate echoes the legacy of the Blackstone Valley's mill-era prosperity. Enjoy a chef's kitchen with SubZero and Wolf appliances, entertain in style in a stately dining room and luxuriate in paneled study. Outside ponds, streams and trails weave past woodlands and wildlife. A storybook guest cottage, barn, and a 3 car garage complete this rare offering.
