The primary residence is nestled in between a sea of deep greens and warm woods, with a modern exterior in sync with its surroundings. Inside, white paint creates a harmony between the walls and ceilings and the warm-toned hardwood flooring. The light colors reflect the natural light pouring in from windows that capture the pond view. Hardwood flooring runs throughout the main living spaces.

The pond holds such appeal that President Grover Cleveland loved to fish its waters. A clipping from the Globe’s archives reports that the president caught a trout weighing nearly 5 pounds there.
