Concord Home of the Week: 210 Powder Mill Road

This traditional colonial on Powder Mill Road, surrounded by nearly an acre of lush countryside, is the ideal property to accentuate Concord's rich history. It is surrounded by a timeless post-and-rail fence and has stood proudly for five decades, emphasizing the strength and stability of this historic town's past. It still possesses its classic New England charm, but has been crisply updated and renovated to reflect today's preferences and lifestyles.

From the attached garage, residents can convenient enter the home through the tiled mudroom, the perfect buffer to store coats, boots and outdoor items. The expanded kitchen offers solid surfaces, oversized bead board cabinets and bay windows that provide scenic views of the level fenced-in back yard. It also provides informal bar-stool seating and an office nook perfect for keeping track of the family’s busy calendar. The formal dining room opens effortlessly into the kitchen through a columned knee wall, encouraging year-round use for this typically infrequently used room. With a quick change of the place setting, every family meal could be enjoyed here. The beautiful family room has a wood stove for supplemental heating in the winter and French doors that open to the private backyard sharing activities outdoors during the summer months. Completing the first floor is the formal living room that offers a pellet stove which contributes to reduced operating costs and adds spectacular ambiance. It also boasts an expansive bay window overlooking the Willard School fields and presents gorgeous hardwood floors.

The master suite is the crown jewel of the second floor. Through the entry is an ample sized room that could be used as an office or dressing room. The updated master bath offers granite counters, a glass enclosed shower and a sky light. The main room greets residents with the same airy feeling that permeates throughout the house with large windows, an enormous skylight and a custom walk-in closet. The second floor also contains a full family bath that has been completely renovated in a classic traditional style and three additional bedrooms, each with impressive closet space.

This home is located directly across from Willard Elementary school, one of the best elementary schools in the state of Massachusetts. In addition, this location offers easy access to hiking trails, Verrill Farm, Rte. 2, and beautiful White Pond. Rarely does an opportunity like this come along in Concord.
