About this home
Live like you're on vacation every day at this fantastic home in Conway Farms! Enjoy the ease of ranch-style living with a spacious first-floor primary suite, full bath, and laundry, all seamlessly integrated into an open-concept floorplan with natural light pouring in. From the moment you step inside, you're welcomed by a striking two-story foyer with herringbone-patterned hardwood floors. The great room impresses with soaring ceilings and expansive windows that frame pond views. Step out onto the extended bluestone patio, perfect for entertaining, grilling, or relaxing outdoors. The formal dining room features tray ceilings and newer marble flooring. The private office (den) with French doors and a gas fireplace provides the perfect space to work from home in style. The expansive kitchen includes a center island, generous eat-in area, abundant cabinetry, and a nearby mudroom for added storage just off the attached 2-car garage (epoxy floor and EV unit). Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath, offering privacy and comfort for family. The finished lower level is ideal for a guest or caretaker, complete with a fourth bedroom, full bath, family room, and a second full kitchen. NEW cedar shake roof (2024). Conway Farms offers resort-style amenities including a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts, walking paths, parks, and golf course access (membership optional) - all in one of the North Shore's most desirable communities, just minutes from elevated shopping, dining, and travel/airports.

Thinking of selling?
What's your home actually worth?
Not a Zestimate. A real CMA from someone who's sold this neighborhood, knows the floor plan premiums, and can tell you which upgrades the buyer pool here actually pays for.
- Pricing range with comp-by-comp logic
- Pre-list improvements that pay back, and the ones that don't
- No obligation, no spam, no auto-dialer
