One Weston home impresses with a stately, family-friendly aesthetic.
The formal living room invites dwellers to cozy up with a good read
Nestled within Weston lies 65 Juniper Road—one of the area’s newest listings to hit the market. The five-bed, six full-and two-half-bath home sits on over an acre and sprawls 7,146 square feet. Built in 2016, the masterfully crafted Colonial evokes an understated, classic contemporary elegance thanks to its custom build by Mellowes & Paladino Architects. “65 Juniper has all the charm of a historic home combined with all the functionality and amenities of a modern home,” says listing agent Brigitte Petrocelli. Inside, exceptional beauty is at every corner—but the true prize is the kitchen, designed by James Beard Award-winning cookbook author and chef Deborah Krasner. Optimal for any at-home chef, the space features custom-built cabinets, hardwood flooring, granite countertops, a pot-filler faucet and stunning Wolf stove. A large island sits beneath glistening gold pendant lighting. Tucked inside the space you’ll find a breakfast nook, complete with a Sputnik chandelier, bench and wall paneling. From this area of the home, floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors look out onto a large patio, where emerald landscaping abounds. Also on this level are a spacious executive office decorated with custom cabinetry, living room, family room, dining room and a guest bedroom. Upstairs, more bedrooms await, including the primary suite, which boasts two walk-in closets, a double-sized steam shower and gas fireplace. For additional space, head to the basement, where 9-foot ceilings, a full bathroom, 350-square-foot gym, game room, media room and a 2,000-bottle wine cellar live. “There are so many things to love about this home. The well thoughtout floor plan lends itself to large, open spaces that flow from one usable space to another,” Petrocelli explains. “The attention to detail in every nook of this home is what maximizes its functionality while making it aesthetically an absolute showstopper.” Outside, two sides of conservation land exist—perfect for hiking, biking, cross-country skiing and dog walking. $5,795,000, Brigitte Petrocelli, 617.803.5249, coldwellbankerluxury.com
