A home that feels like it’s been quietly holding its story for years. This beautiful Victorian in Wakefield opens with a gracious foyer, where original maple floors and intricate built-ins highlight its character and detail. Sunlight fills the living and dining rooms, creating warm, inviting spaces suited for both everyday living and larger gatherings. A screened-in side porch offers a peaceful retreat, while a mudroom at the rear entry provides a practical connection to the two-car garage and backyard, extending the home’s living space outdoors. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a dedicated office provide flexibility for work, guests, or additional living space. The third floor offers a fourth bedroom along with expansion potential. Located under a mile from downtown Wakefield, the commuter rail, and a mix of restaurants and boutiques, this home blends classic charm with everyday convenience and easy access to parks and Crystal Lake.
