Our Take

27 Shields Road is a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath brick-and-clapboard Colonial built in 1988 on 0.51 acres within Shields Road at Middlesex Farm. The home sits on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac and includes sunny rooms, high ceilings, and open-concept kitchen and living spaces. Updates include a new roof and driveway, newly finished floors, updated systems, custom built-ins and moldings, and Carrera marble finishes in the kitchen and baths. An oversized two-car garage offers potential for an additional bedroom above.
