If we’ve overused the word “sanctuary” in the past, it’s an absolutely fitting way to describe 29 Philip Street in Medfield. The property is worthy of the word sprawling, with more than 16 wooded acres hugging the home and its meticulous landscaping.

Within a commuting distance to Boston and near Medfield schools, 29 Philip Street is the home for you if you’ve ever lamented not having enough room for your kids, friends, hobbies, or kids’ friends’ hobbies. There’s no such thing here, with more than 10,000 square feet, six bedrooms, recreation and gathering space, and a football field of a backyard, which includes a pool and a hot tub plus a pool house and patio space galore.

For hosting, look no farther than a banquet-sized dining room with a fireplace, a family room with a stone hearth, and den. And if you need to feed this amassing crowd, the open kitchen features tons of prep space, a double range, a pair of islands, and a nice vantage point for keeping an eye on the festivities.

On the walk-out lower level, entertain in the family room or retreat to get your workout in courtesy of your home gym.

On the market for $4,400,000, the sale of the home is represented by Jane Migdol and Joanthan Migdol with the MigdolMoore Team at Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty.
