Beautiful and bright 1920’s brick & shingle colonial in a prime central Wellesley location near the town center, train, and Brook Path, and within the rare “school triangle” – close to the elementary, middle, and high schools. This classic home sits on a professionally landscaped lot with a fenced yard, expansive deck, and two-car garage. Inside, charming period details blend seamlessly with modern updates, including a sun-filled kitchen with breakfast nook, elegant formal rooms, a partially finished lower level, and a finished attic office (bonus 642 sq.ft. in attic: office/and 5th bedroom). Key features include central air, 200-amp electrical service, an in-ground sprinkler system, and a cobble-lined driveway, high-efficiency Burnham boiler, custom whole-home networking and AV systems, and custom closet installations in all bedrooms. Handsome details, thoughtful improvements, and a superb location make this home truly move-in ready. List of Improvements, Matterport & video attached.
