40 Ruffin Road Overview
- Time on Site:
- 11 days
It's rare to find a vintage estate tucked away from a main road, but this one sits at the end of a private lane, opening to 6.3 enchanting acres framed by stone walls, manicured gardens, and a charming vintage home. The property includes a large custom two-story pole barn, inground pool, detached three-bay garage, and an adorable potting shed. The great room flows into a kitchen with handmade cabinetry, butler's pantry, soapstone counters, and a Vulcan stove, all centered around a brick fireplace flanked by double French doors leading to a shady brick patio. Off the kitchen, a spacious screened porch surrounded with stone walls, offers a peaceful spot to enjoy the seasons. The formal living room, currently an office, boasts a light-filled five-window bay, while two front entry rooms serve as a den and library. The primary suite, in its own wing above the great room, features a private living room, full bath, sleeping area, and views of Perkins Ponds. Three additional bedrooms, accessed via a second staircase, are bright, charming, and surprisingly well-appointed with closets. The impressive barn offers tandem bays for vehicles, a heated workshop, and two upper rooms perfect for future studio spaces. Relax by the pool, take in the flowers, and enjoy the chorus of birds.
