Property Description

Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in Auburndale, this extraordinary 19th-century farmhouse was reimagined & completed in 2023 as the personal residence of the celebrated founder of Slocum Hall Design Group, and recently featured in New England Home Magazine. Blending drama & comfort with warm walnut details, & anchored by a sleek kitchen with lacquer cabinetry. Highlights include indigo accents, luxe finishes, a sculptural staircase, radiant floors & crocodile wallpaper. The open-concept main level flows to an Ipe deck, stone patio & magnificent yard. A den and mudroom w/ radiant floors, office + attached 2-car garage enhance functionality. Upstairs offers 3 bedrooms plus a loft/flex space designed for a future 4th & private sun deck off the primary. The lower level includes a gym/flex room & full bath. All-electric systems, solar panels & high-performance insulation deliver efficiency, with Auburndale Village, commuter rail & Charles River paths just moments away. A true oasis.
