Every now and then, a property comes along that feels like somebody made a list of luxury-home wish-list items and simply checked all of them off.
Swimming pool? Check. Movie theater? Check. Basketball court? Check. Guest house? Absolutely. And not just any guest house.
The detached residence at 7 Freeman Street is so substantial that in many parts of the country, it would qualify as a perfectly respectable primary home.
Located in Lynnfield just north of Boston, the property has hit the market for $3.599 million with George Sarkis and Rich Peterson of The Sarkis Team at Douglas Elliman.
And it feels purpose-built for buyers who want their home to function like a private resort.
The home sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac
One of the first things working in the property’s favor is its setting.
Positioned at the end of a cul-de-sac, the home benefits from a level of privacy that’s increasingly difficult to find in suburban luxury neighborhoods.
The location immediately creates a quieter atmosphere before you even step through the front door.
A dramatic staircase makes a strong first impression
The entry sequence doesn’t exactly ease you into things.
A soaring two-story foyer immediately draws attention upward, while a sweeping staircase establishes the home’s larger-than-life scale.
It’s a classic luxury-home move, but one that still works.
More than 7,400 square feet means there’s room for everything
The residence spans approximately 7,430 square feet, allowing the home to carve out dedicated spaces for almost every activity imaginable.
Unlike many newer open-concept homes where everything blends together, this one benefits from a series of distinct spaces that feel intentionally designed for different parts of daily life.
The main living areas prioritize gathering
Throughout the home, the layout emphasizes entertaining and family life without becoming overly formal.
The flow between rooms feels natural, making it easy to imagine everything from large holiday gatherings to quiet evenings at home.
The lower level becomes entertainment headquarters
Then you head downstairs.
And that’s where the fun really starts.
A private movie theater eliminates the need for cineplexes
The finished lower level includes a dedicated theater room designed for movie nights, sporting events, binge-watching marathons, or simply escaping the outside world for a few hours.
Once a home includes its own theater, regular movie tickets start feeling a little unnecessary.
Additional recreation space creates room for games, gatherings, and whatever hobbies the next owner wants to pursue.
It’s the kind of lower level that doesn’t feel like a basement at all.
The top floor can become whatever you need it to be
At the opposite end of the house, a bonus level occupies the uppermost floor.
Gym. Office. Yoga studio.
Creative workspace. Playroom.
The flexibility is part of the appeal.
The pool anchors a resort-style backyard
Then you step outside. And suddenly the property starts competing with country clubs.
The backyard centers around a large in-ground swimming pool that immediately establishes the property’s vacation-at-home atmosphere.
It’s the kind of setting where weekends can disappear quickly.
A covered pavilion extends the outdoor season
Nearby, a covered pavilion creates an outdoor living room of sorts.
Whether hosting summer gatherings or simply escaping the sun for a few hours, the structure helps turn the backyard into a true extension of the home.
The outdoor entertaining areas feel generous rather than cramped.
There is plenty of room for dining, lounging, gathering, and enjoying the backyard without everyone competing for the same space.
The basketball court changes everything
And then there’s the basketball court.
Because very few luxury homes can honestly claim they have their own private court.
It’s one of those amenities that instantly elevates the property’s fun factor and creates opportunities for year-round recreation.
The guest house is where things get interesting
Most guest houses are little more than glorified spare bedrooms.
This isn’t that.
The detached residence could easily stand on its own
The guest house spans more than 1,000 square feet.
Read that again. More than 1,000 square feet.
That’s larger than countless condos, apartments, and starter homes throughout New England.
Unlike many detached guest suites, this residence includes a full kitchen. That immediately expands its usefulness for extended family visits, long-term guests, multigenerational living, or even a live-in caretaker arrangement.
The detached structure also includes a dedicated bedroom and bathroom, giving visitors genuine privacy rather than simply offering them a spare room down the hall.
Parking won’t be a problem
The property includes a three-car garage and parking for up to fourteen vehicles.
That level of capacity becomes particularly useful when entertaining on a larger scale.
A home built around living well
At its core, that’s what makes 7 Freeman Street stand out.
It’s not trying to be the flashiest house in Massachusetts.
It’s trying to make everyday life more enjoyable.
And judging by the long list of amenities packed into the property, it succeeds quite nicely.
