Home of the Week: 116 Estabrook Road

While the size and price of this magnificent Concord estate may not appeal to the majority of prospective homebuyers, its grounds and residence unite to present such an extraordinary piece of real estate it just had to be showcased as the Patch Home of the Week. A long winding drive is a fitting preamble that opens into a grand forecourt edged with professionally designed gardens, mature landscaping and brick walls. That picturesque introduction, however, is only one small slice of this exceptional residence.

Built circa 1960, this home still presents much of its vintage character, yet has also undergone several renovations and space reconfigurations to elevate it to today's comfortable living standards. Two great examples of its progressive enhancements are the stunning 30 x 19 square foot kitchen that is fully equipped with premier culinary ingredients that include banished walls, granite surfaces, premier appliances and a butler's pantry and the enveloping fireplaced great room with its coffered ceiling, walnut flooring and exterior French doors that encourage al fresco dining on the brick terrace. The expansive 30 x 18 square foot living room offers a large bay window and window seats to relax and enjoy the sweeping pond views and both this space and the 17 x 15 square foot dining area also tender access through French doors to the terrace and gardens. A 16 x 16 square foot fireplaced bedroom suite and 43 x 19 square foot accessory apartment are also available on this floor.

The second level serves multiple uses for lodging, recreation and leisure, the perfect combination for today's active lifestyles. It hosts a well-appointed 15 x 18 fireplaced master suite, two suites with private baths, measuring at 16 x 16 and 16 x 15 square feet, and two additional bedrooms at 12 x 11 and 17 x 12 square feet. This floor also includes a 25 x 14 square foot game room and a 12 x 9 square foot office. The finished basement expands pastime opportunities even further with a 17 x 16 square foot exercise room and a 21 x 15 square foot fireplaced family room with a wine cellar.

Outdoor amenities were also given substantial consideration with its fabrication with a heated in-ground pool, spa, tennis court, a 650 square foot pool house, a post and beam barn and a four-stall horse barn.

This idyllic property, reminiscent of the Vermont countryside, is further augmented with abutting Estabrook Woods, protected land which Henry David Thoreau often described in his journals. It is surrounded by fields, ponds, woods and trails offering its residents the luxury of ultimate privacy, yet still within walking distance to bustling Concord Center. Truly the best of all worlds.
