Description

In Thoreau's masterwork Walden, he said the 40-acre glacial kettle pond next to our waterfront home is one of the "emerald eyes of the world". It is indeed an enchanted place, yet so close to Boston. This winter we are offering our secluded single family home. You'll leave the rest of the world behind you walking down the gravel footpath from the road, about 120 feet. The house is heated with two mini-splits but you may enjoy the flickering light gained by firing up our pellet stoves as well. One stove is located in the bedroom wing, the other in the living room. Enjoy skating, ice fishing, and cross country skiing right outside your door when the weather is right, peace and calm when the weather is harsh. The house is fully stocked with cooking tools and bath towels. The bed and linens are first rate for a very comfortable stay. This is a place that magic happens.
