Living large, inside and out

A touch of Garrison colonial elegance set on a country road. It’s what buyers will find at 66 Fisher Road in Medway. This is combination property, offering unique outdoor amenities and a well-maintained interior with plenty of family-friendly square footage.

“There is a one-stall horse barn on the property, so, by all means, bring your pony. But there’s also an updated and spacious floor plan inside. There’s a lot to see here,” said Realtor Carolyn Chodat of Classic Properties Realtors.

There is much to see, a beautiful spring day offering a blue-sky backdrop to the pleasant backyard, which includes a large play set in addition to the one-stall barn. Good for storage or a hobby enthusiast, the barn could easily be repurposed if the equestrian life is not your plans. The fenced backyard with additional land beyond is well suited for young families and features established perennials and hardwoods. The front boasts equal green space, historical Fisher Road lazily winding by.

The home has large rooms with lots of living space, beginning with a 25-by-13-foot living room. The current homeowners have chosen to flip the square footage, using this space as their formal dining area. It works well in either format, the front-to-back room boasting hardwood flooring, exposed wood-beams and spot recessed lighting. Harvey replacement windows are found throughout the home, bringing improved energy efficiency and an easy-clean design to the mix. While we entered the living room via right off the foyer, we find traditional dining room square footage, 11 by 13, located left off the center hall entry. The dining room features wainscoting, chair rail and hardwood flooring. Painted in a contemporary apple-green palette, this sunny spot is readily converted from toy room to its original use.

As sizable kitchens go, this grand space, 16 by 24, is primed to rival most homes at a median price point. It’s been updated and well-maintained, the oak cabinetry boasting newer hardware, brushed nickel fixtures and easy maintenance ceramic tile flooring. Painted in cherry red, the lower half of the kitchen walls feature barn-board wainscoting in white, offering in an eye-catching effect. Triple windows border a spacious casual dining area while the workspace boasts white appliances, built-in microwave, full pantry closet and glass-front cabinets for display and storage. An updated half bath is located nearby.

Accentuating the living space is a 13-by-25 family room. It features a wood-burning brick fireplace flanked by sconces and Arts & Crafts style windows. Painted barn-board siding brings a touch of rustic charm, opening to an inviting three-season porch. Views are private and expansive with a surround of sliding glass doors. The three-season porch opens to a deck, the perfect arrangement for indoor/outdoor entertaining.
