A renovated antique gem located in one of the most picturesque areas of Roxbury. Surrounded by tranquil grounds and close to pristine public lands, the John Lewis Homestead (1780) exemplifies the art of marrying the old and new. Over the years, the original homestead has been expanded, restored, remodeled, and renovated. The home's tasteful renovation created bright rooms throughout and a well-situated gunite pool. The newer light-filled section seamlessly flows into the original structure, which maintains vintage features reminiscent of a time of quiet contentment and has three original stone fireplaces, exposed beams, and wide flooring. The current layout provides space for a formal dining room, den, and study, as well as three bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. The grand living room has a large fireplace, antique beams, built-in bookshelves, and a screened-in porch overlooking the pool. The adjacent primary bedroom has exposed beams, french doors, a dressing room and luxury bath with a jacuzzi tub and Waterworks fixtures. The large eat-in kitchen includes a large kitchen island, Wolf range, and Subzero fridge. The walk-out lower level includes a bedroom and bath with french doors leading to the pool. The detached garage has guest quarters with vaulted ceilings, a full bath and kitchenette. You’ll love the magical grounds with specimen trees, mature plantings, and exposed granite, all less than two hours from New York City.
