Historic Elegance Meets Modern Luxury. Quintessential Bridgewater charm meets historic provenance in this extraordinary 1829 residence. Originally the historic Mallet District Schoolhouse, the home was masterfully restored and expanded in 2006, seamlessly merging centuries-old character with sophisticated contemporary luxury. Set on a coveted, level one-acre lot framed by iconic New England stone walls, the estate unfolds across sweeping, park-like lawns and serene outdoor living spaces. Inside, period architectural craftsmanship shines through wide-plank oak floors, bespoke millwork, and five fireplaces that bring warmth, scale, and sensational natural light to every room. Main-level formal living and dining rooms-each anchored by a striking brick fireplace-flow effortlessly into a sunlit, paneled family room with a rustic fieldstone fireplace. At the heart of the home sits a chef-grade kitchen outfitted with an eleven-foot center island, classic farmhouse sink, premium appliances, and a sunlit breakfast area opening directly to a peaceful bluestone patio. The main floor honors its heritage with a private bedroom suite in the original schoolhouse wing, complete with its own dedicated sitting room and sleek marble bath. Upstairs, the primary retreat offers a tranquil escape featuring a wood-burning fireplace, expansive walk-in closet, and a spa-like marble bath centered around a timeless clawfoot tub. Two additional light-infused guest

bedrooms, a marble-appointed hall bath, and a upper-level laundry room complete this masterpiece. Additional Amenities: 2 Bay Barn/Garage with storage above, A full basement with two areas, 39x31 and 26x20, walk up attic for storage and potential further use, lighting dimmers in each.
