Set on two beautifully landscaped acres in Acton's coveted Strawberry Hill neighborhood near the Concord line, this grand, well maintained Cape offers an extraordinary setting for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying every New England season. But the backyard may steal the show at 88 Esterbrook! At the heart of the private backyard retreat is a free-form gunite pool surrounded by expansive patios, lush gardens, landscape lighting and an outdoor gas fireplace. A large deck with motorized awning overlooks it all - perfect for summer dinners, afternoons by the pool and crisp fall evenings by the fire. A 22-panel solar array adds another standout feature and provides energy savings throughout the year. Inside, sunlight pours through the home, including a beautifully renovated kitchen with vaulted ceiling, skylights, oversized island and abundant cabinetry, opening naturally to multiple gathering spaces. The first-floor primary suite offers a beautifully updated bath and walk-in closet, while French doors, custom built-ins and thoughtful updates add character throughout. The walk-out lower level provides flexible gym, play and bonus space plus a poolside sunroom connecting directly to the backyard. A 3-car garage with workshop/storage space completes the offering. Private and peaceful with a distinctly country feel, yet just minutes from shopping, dining, trails and everything Acton has to offer, 88 Esterbrook is more than a beautiful home - it's a place designed to be enjoyed.
