...The Mountainside Cape

There's a particular kind of quiet that belongs to dead-end roads, and this restored Cape has claimed it fully -- perched on 1.3 hillside acres with hundreds more of state-protected forest unfurling behind it, the sense of room to roam built directly into the deed. The house itself plays a confident game of contrasts. Inside, a soaring vaulted living room with exposed beams is wrapped in windows on every side, pulling the hillside in as a permanent fixture of the room. The kitchen continues the conversation -- open, modern, anchored by a floating island with easy sightlines to a dining area sized for real gathering. Sliding glass doors erase the line between kitchen, living room, and backyard entirely, so summer dinners migrate outside without a second thought, and a proper mudroom keeps the transition tidy year-round. The primary suite sits just off the main living space, generous enough for a king bed and more, with a primary bath that's been updated with real care rather than a passing refresh. A second bedroom claims its own wing -- equally capable of housing a king setup -- paired with an updated common bath and a pass-through laundry room that quietly solves the logistics of daily life. Practical bones match the polish: the home has been fully insulated with electric heat throughout, and a separate barn/garage stands ready as storage, workshop, or whatever the next chapter calls for. Set on a quiet dead-end road with pastoral and valley views and miles of countryside lane just outside the door, this is a five-minute drive from the heart of Roxbury -- close enough for convenience, far enough for stillness. Move-in ready, and perfectly timed: this is the house that makes fall leaf-peeping feel like coming home.
