Property Description
Some prefer to be the first; others cherish becoming part of history. A rare opportunity to steward a property rich in heritage, The Joseph Walker House (c.1790) is a timeless masterpiece where history and modern conveniences intertwine. This post and beam home showcases original details such as the ell, now a new English country kitchen, wide pine floors and fireplaces. Enjoy mature gardens with rare perennials that bloom all 3 seasons. The structurally restored three-story barn (early 1800s) stands as a testament to fine craftsmanship. The masterfully updated bathrooms & kitchen blend seamlessly with the home’s character, while a detached two-car garage is positioned just off the kitchen. J. Walker's original cobblers shop remains on the property where he revolutionized the shoe industry. Located just minutes from town center, the Boston Marathon start line, top schools, shopping, Rt. 495, Pike and T yet set in the countryside striking the perfect balance.
