Description
Nestled along one of Wenham's most scenic country roads, this extraordinary c1926 Tudor estate is set amidst approximately 14 acres of rolling lawns, mature woodland, curated gardens, and a resort-style swimming pool, offering exceptional privacy and timeless elegance. Known as "The Ledges," the storied stone residence evokes the romance of an English manor while seamlessly incorporating today's modern amenities.
- Beyond a cobblestone-lined drive and gracious motor court, the home unfolds with remarkable architectural character and beautifully proportioned living spaces.
- The six-bedroom, seven-bath residence features a dramatic blue stone entry hall, richly paneled library, sun-filled conservatory, and a chef's kitchen appointed with custom maple cabinetry and generous gathering spaces designed for entertaining.
- The primary suite serves as a luxurious retreat with adjoining dressing room and elegant bath, while a separate in-law or au pair suite offers flexibility for guests or extended family.
- Throughout the home, original craftsmanship, leaded glass windows, and multiple fireplaces create warmth and authenticity rarely found today.
- Recent enhancements include central air conditioning, a Weil-McLain heating system, upgraded 400-amp electrical service, extensive chimney restoration, custom windows, and integrated fire and security systems.
- Surrounded by the natural beauty of the North Shore yet just minutes from Wenham, Hamilton, and Beverly, the property offers convenient access to commuter rail service to Boston, renowned public and private schools, and nearby beaches.
- A rare offering where historic pedigree, serenity, and modern comfort converge.
