Why: This stately four-bedroom Tudor is a house-hunter’s wish list realized. New renovations like a slate roof and gourmet kitchen are obvious checkmarks. You’ll also find heated floors, French doors that open onto a sunny sitting room, and built-in shelves along the dining room and–fun surprise–the upstairs hallway. It’s located on a quiet, tree-lined street in North Woodside.

Why: This sweet four-bedroom Cape Cod sits on nearly half an acre and is deceptively large, with a behemoth backyard that gives it a country club vibe. The wood-burning fireplace and cozy pine-walled office invite you to work from home and steal a break on one of the side porches.
