If you’re impressed by 577 Bridge Street in Dedham’s grand curb appeal, wait until you make your way to the rear of the jaw-dropping Colonial Revival.

Close to 2.5 acres of leaf-lined serenity await you in one of the neighborhood’s most coveted homes — lushly landscaped and abutting Charles River frontage.

The late-1800s home strikes a regal note at every turn. Undergoing careful renovation and loads of upgrades, the interior transitions elegantly between period glamour and modern touches where its new owners will appreciate them the most.

We love the herringbone brick floors in the sunroom, the richly paneled library and home office space, and the enormous foyer that ushers you inside. In addition to the classically styled rooms with crown moulding, fireplaces, and built-ins, there are notable stylish updates here, namely to the kitchen.

Sitting at the literal and figurative heart of the home, the eat-in kitchen area features an oversized island, charming desk setup, and a sunny sitting area overlooking the backyard, all topped with a tall beamed ceiling.

Joining the five bedrooms and amenities galore in the main residence is a separate carriage house with a two-bedroom guest quarters and studio space for hobbyists.

Dreamy, exquisite, choose-your-superlative outdoor living and entertaining spaces abound here — take a dip in the pool, read a book on the brick-lined patio, or wind down with an adult beverage under the pergola-covered outdoor fireplace.

The property is on the market for $4,995,000. The sale is represented by Josh Muncey of the Muncey Group at Compass, 617-905-6445.
