Whether your dream home is one designed for a growing family or the carefully planned retirement home you’ve worked toward for decades, location is the first and foremost priority in accomplishing your goals. Beech Tree Estates, located in historic Chiltonville, is the perfect location to see your dreams emerge. Minutes from downtown Plymouth, area beaches and recreation as well as the expressway, Beech Tree Estates sits on over 40 acres of rolling wooded hills and sundrenched fields marking a peaceful enclave few can imagine so close to downtown. This pristine oasis will be preserved for all generations with nearly half the total land area being deeded open space maintaining the natural beauty in perpetuity.
Beech Tree Estates is a snapshot in time of how the greater Plymouth community grew during the 18th and 19th century. Turning off historic Sandwich Street at the historic Bramhall corner store, you enter a community thoughtfully designed to capture the old world character of greater Plymouth and the charm of a secluded village. Gas-style street lamps, seating areas adorned with cobblestone pavers and wrought iron benches, architecturally designed landscaping, mindful landplaning and breathtaking architecture all combine to take you back in time.
Set back nearly four hundred feet from the entrance, you pass hickory split rail fencing, ornamental grasses and flowering trees long before you ever see the first home. As you round the corner the village area of Beech tree Estates offers its first glimpses. Greek revival homes line the street. Classic lines and architectural details including columns, detailed trim and covered porches mark a collection of residences designed in harmony, yet no two are alike. As you move deeper into the community, past the village setting and through the pasture stonewalls, Beech Tree estates takes you into a more rural setting where the Greek Revival details gives way to farmhouse features such as board and baton siding, cupolas and metal roofs. As with the village setting, while the farmhouses all seem as they were planned to exist together, none are the same. Each home taking on the new owners personal touches, wants and needs making this community truly special and a place where you and your family can live, work and play for generations.
