Description
Distinguished brick country estate built for William R. Moody, eldest son and successor of Dwight L. Moody, founder of the Northfield Seminary School. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original character. Three-and-a-half levels of living space featuring exquisite architectural details, period craftsmanship, timeless millwork, custom cabinetry, exceptional built-ins, and three working fireplaces. A gracious foyer with original staircases introduces living spaces rich in character and craftsmanship. The kitchen is complemented by a walk-in pantry and butler's pantry, while south-facing windows and a sun-filled conservatory overlook gardens, fruit trees, pool, and gazebo. Set on 5.67 acres with paddocks, a four-stall stable, and a carriage-style barn with one stall, tack room, run-in shed, and two-car garage, the property borders state land with miles of trails. Minutes to Northfield Center and the New Hampshire border. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Northfield's history.
