Listing broker remarks

Tucked at the crest of Duck Hill Road, where the pines meet the sea, this remarkable 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath retreat blends modern design with a calming aesthetic. Set on 7.6 acres spanning Duxbury and Marshfield, a long driveway climbs to a slate walkway lined with beautiful dogwood trees. The open main level gathers kitchen, dining, & living behind gorgeous walls of glass, where mature Japanese maples frame views of the tidal marsh that shift with every season. Unwind in the first-floor primary suite with new bath wrapped in slate-blue glass tile with rainfall shower. Upstairs, skylights brighten a vaulted retreat, a home office wrapped in built-ins, & a walk-out lower level. Central AC & New Generator. The showstopper is an expansive deck with ambient lighting overlooking the Back River, screened porch & deeded marsh access for kayak mornings. Hawks, heron, fox, & deer pass through. A cherished neighborhood close to the beach & schools yet a world apart. A once in a lifetime offering!— Waterfront Realty Group
