This winter, trade the windy streets of Boston for a bucolic estate blanketed in snow. Situated on the south side of Weston, Juniper Farm is a 3.54-acre oasis just off the reservoir. The stunning grounds are adorned with stone walls, a three-bed carriage house, a barn and a colonial main house. “The property is a sophisticated blend of history, a time capsule of sorts, that has been thoughtfully renovated and built to fit today’s lifestyle and family needs,” says co-listing agent Maggie Gold Seelig of the five-bed, five-and-three-half-bath listing.

Explore 8,200 square feet of living space, starting with the 18th-century home’s kitchen and dining area. A spacious island, white cabinets and stainless steel appliances adorn the space, brightened by ample natural light. Down the hall, a neutral living room offers the ideal space for entertaining. Windows overlooking the property surround the space—the current owner’s favorite seat to watch the snowfall. Completing the main level is a rustic yet elegant dining room with exposed beams, where a wood-burning fireplace adds a cozy touch.

Venture upstairs to find additional living spaces, an office, guest bedrooms and the primary suite. The generous room features space for a seating area, two walk-in dressing rooms and an en suite with a deep soaking tub. Even more awaits beyond the main home—the barn houses an indoor basketball and pickleball court, exercise area, gaming loft, screen porches and more. A cathedral ceiling in the living area creates an open atmosphere, and a tall stone fireplace offers the perfect place to warm up after snowshoeing on the grounds.

“My favorite space is the living room in the barn,” says the current owner. “Parents can enjoy a glass of wine by the fireplace while kids entertain themselves on the basketball court. The barn is the ultimate entertaining space where you have spaces to create a cozy nook to entertain a few people but can also be opened up to host a charity event for 200.”

And off-property, there’s even more for homeowners to enjoy. Co-listing agent Peter Hill concludes: “131 Newton St. is an amenity-rich location with things to do from hiking one of Weston’s many trails and two reservoirs to enjoying rounds of golf and tennis at three private country clubs in town.” $5,795,000, 131 Newton St., Weston, Peter Hill and Maggie Gold Seelig, 508.353.9721 and 617.645.4999, mgsgrouprealestate.com
