PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Set on 15.7 acres in the heart of Sherborn, this beautifully composed estate offers a rare blend of refined country living and fully realized equestrian infrastructure. Surrounded by stone walls, open pastures, and thoughtfully planned grounds, the property unfolds as a series of distinct spaces designed for gathering, riding, entertaining, and quiet retreat. Long fenced lanes connect manicured paddocks, riding arenas, barns, gardens, and residences, creating a setting that feels both expansive and deeply intentional. The main residence has been thoughtfully reimagined, balancing historic character with a more open, light-filled design. Restored architectural details, high ceilings, curated finishes, and modern systems create a home that feels elegant yet welcoming. At its center is a fully custom kitchen with a premium Miele appliance suite, Sub-Zero refrigeration, oversized stone island, and tailored cabinetry, complemented by substantial renovations and infrastructure improvements completed since 2019. The equestrian facilities reflect the same level of care and execution. A large indoor riding arena with updated footing and lighting, a professionally rebuilt outdoor arena by Josh Nutter featuring specialized footing and drainage, and 11 stalls across the main barn and arena building support a wide range of equestrian pursuits, from private riding to training operations. Lucas Equine stall fronts, custom gates and doors, extra-height stallion stalls, grooming bays, automatic water systems, frost-free hydrants, and thoughtfully designed paddock circulation speak to the quality and functionality woven throughout the property. Additional structures enhance both flexibility and lifestyle, including a detached one-bedroom, one-bath guest cottage, a carriage barn connected to the seven-stall main barn, and the Apple Barn — a versatile gathering and recreation space currently used for a gym and storage, with newly added auxiliary space designed for future wash stalls, grooming areas, or additional amenities overlooking the outdoor arena. The grounds are equally compelling, with an established orchard of fruit trees, grapevines, berry plantings, raised garden beds, a European-style Orangerie greenhouse, patios, and open pastureland creating a true sense of place. The result is a property that feels complete and deeply considered — a turnkey equestrian estate and country compound offering beauty, functionality, and enduring character just outside Boston and the region’s major metropolitan centers.
