Home of the Week: 69 Thornberry Rd.

Oversized and open spaces are the design principles represented inside and out of this magnificent custom colonial in the desirable West Side area of Winchester. With almost half an acre of level land, this property promotes the ideal setting for outdoor recreation, and for those colder months, the interior promises to comfortably house a family with warm, cozy locations throughout three finished levels of living space.

The first floor consists of four generously sized common rooms. The sun-filled kitchen boasts wood cabinets, a pantry and a casual dining area and effortlessly spills into the sunken family room with built-ins and an adjacent, graceful sunporch. Both formal entertaining spaces offer classic architectural touches with a china cabinet in the dining room and a fireplace and bow window in the living room. This level also conveniently provides a laundry room and a mudroom.

The second floor offers four large bedrooms, including a master bedroom with his-and-her walk-in closets. The family room on the lower level is a winter haven with a brick fireplace surrounding by floor to ceiling, built-in shelving units and the entire area is enveloped in natural wood adding to the warmth and coziness of the space.

While the comfort and classic character of this gracious home provides the basic ingredients for its homeowners, its bonus amenities are truly the icing on the cake. In addition to its half acre of land, it also boasts a two-car attached garage, a highly desirable neighborhood and is located within the district of the future new .

This home is vacant and ready for immediate occupancy so its current listing on the open Winchester real estate market will likely be short. One glimpse of its photo album is all it will take to value its charm and visualize its promise of years of contentment, luxury and security.
