In the real estate version of Duck, Duck, Goose, homebuyers in Greater Boston can expect something like Colonial, Colonial, Cape.

But every once in a while, if you’re really patient, you come across a rare bird like the 1959 mid-century modern single-family at 7 Upson Road in Wellesley. Buyers with a discerning eye for design will swoon over the authentic “Mad Men”-era home, replete with tons of original details that feel modern to this day. Available to the public for the first time in 30 years, the home is a must-see.

Up a short, gentle driveway, the butterfly-style roof and commanding floor-to-ceiling windows reveal themselves as the home blends in with the surrounding wooded lot of nearly half an acre. Year-round babbling brooks criss-cross the property and serve as a dramatic backdrop once inside the home.

The home’s unique layout, designed in the late ’50s, was decades ahead of its time, with an open floor plan before “open floor plan” became a ubiquitous catchall for living, dining and kitchen space. But the combined living space, with tall ceilings, walls of windows, clerestory windows throughout and original mahogany paneling, is breathtaking, drawing you outside and the outside in.

Turkeys, deer and the occasional fox frequent the pine-lined grounds that are on view from every corner of the home. During warmer months, an oversize deck on the side of the house allows you to get even closer to nature.

Sleeping quarters are designed efficiently. There are three bedrooms in all and a family room that could convert into a fourth bedroom or a home office with an enviable view. The master bedroom, situated on the ground floor, enjoys lots of privacy, its own full bathroom, dressing area and a private terrace.

Open house hours are from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday, March 10. To find out more about the home, priced at $995,000, contact Stephen Sykes with Berkshire Hathaway Home Services — Town and Country Real Estate at 781-775-1878.
