Even though it’s conveniently situated between Interstates 95 and 495, Concord’s exclusive Bateman’s Ridge neighborhood feels like it’s in a world of its own.

Snuggled into a thickly wooded slice of Concord, the enclave is home to generously proportioned properties that enjoy privacy without being too off-the-grid. And that’s what we have with 782 Strawberry Hill Road, a veritable compound on three acres with resort-like outdoor living and more than 7,100 square feet of interior space.

The custom Colonial is ideal for families that value time spent together, with numerous inviting rooms to relax, dine and play. High ceilings and contemporary details on a grand scale also lend themselves nicely to hosting a crowd.

Immediately noticeable and one of the home’s loveliest features is the sheer number of oversized windows, bringing warmth to every room and taking full advantage of the pastoral grounds.

Between the library, exercise room, laid-back sunroom, sprawling great room and a window-wrapped porch off the dining room, there’s no excuse to be bored here, and that’s before exploring the home’s manicured gardens and sumptuous designer pool and patio area.

In addition to a desirable first-floor bedroom and a separate guest or au-pair suite, the home enjoys a lavish primary suite with a luxurious en-suite bath and built-in custom closet area. Two additional bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath, can be found on the second floor, large windows overlooking the grounds.
