Secluded in the woods of Roxborough, this $2,495,000 home has a foot in two worlds. It’s set back from everything, flanked by 300 acres of preserved land; but it’s also a 10 minute drive from the Regional Rail station.

That’s one of the big draws for this 8,000-square-foot home, which the listing dubs a “private oasis.” In addition to that massive square footage, the home offers six beds and 5.5 baths, along with a private au pair suite—complete with a kitchenette and bathroom—upstairs. There’s even an infinity pool outside.

The whole place looks like a villa that stepped out of the French countryside, with a mix of hardwood and brick floors throughout; large windows that shed tons of light; an artist’s studio that could double as a library; and some killer views of the greenery outside.

An original section of the home was built in the 1800s, but the place was renovated and added to in 2003.
