A rare find...as this is the ultimate North Shore ranch with a phenomenal expansive floor plan with all the right spaces in the right places! Rehabbed to grand perfection & magically set an idyllic sanctuary 1-acre oasis tucked away off Locust Road. Designed for the ease of true one-floor living, this retreat blends comfort and sophistication with a dream backyard where a brand-new Boilini pool is the gorgeous backdrop. Expansive bluestone patios, a storybook pergola draped in wisteria, and a row of mature arborvitae trees create a private, scenic retreat right at home. Step inside to the foyer that opens to a stunning, light-filled living space where vaulted ceilings and a grand arched opening draw you into the sunroom. Walls of floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping views of the pool and patios, flooding the home with natural light. The living room connects seamlessly to the formal dining room with direct patio access, perfect for entertaining. Warm & inviting family room w/ vaulted ceilings and dramatic exposed beams, anchored by a stately stone fireplace with sleek built-in shelving and an integrated adjustable TV. Sliding doors open to the pergola and bluestone terraces for effortless indoor-outdoor living. Well done Chef's kitchen by Benvenuti & Stein is bright & cheerful accented with a large skylight, crisp white cabinetry, soapstone counters, and professional s/s appliances. Large center island with bar seating and a sunny breakfast room make this the perfect spot for casual meals. Conveniently located mudroom just off the kitchen with laundry, full bath, and bedroom (currently a gym) connects to the oversized 3-car attached heated garage with electric voltage hookup. With an ideal spit floor-plan, the fabulous sun-drenched bedroom wing consists of gorgeous built-out office, 2 additional bedrooms & oversized luxe primary suite. True retreat with soaring ceilings, private patio, huge walk-in closet with extra wide hallway & massive spa bath w/ dual vanities, make up sit down space, double soaking tub and no edge walk-in shower. This entire space is over the top amazing as it's like a grand hotel suite with the finest quality of finishes. Downstairs, the pristine unfinished lower level offers endless potential with its clean, open space and a beautifully crafted wine cellar ready for your collection. At 52 Locust, life is easy, breezy, and centered around the best of one-floor living-where a backyard oasis with manicured grounds and timeless interiors create the ultimate North Shore escape.
