    What's special

    Enclosed porchVinyl sidingFenced-in yardBeautiful hardwood floors throughout
    Welcome to this charming 1950s Colonial located at 2 Barry Road on Worcester’s highly desirable west side. Set in a wonderful neighborhood near great schools, this well-built home offers a perfect blend of classic character, generous living space, and thoughtful updates. With 2,151 square feet of living space, the home features three bedrooms along with a versatile bonus room above the attached two-car garage—ideal for a home office, 4th bedroom, or playroom. Inside, you’ll find beautiful hardwood floors throughout, including beneath the carpeting in two bedrooms and the bonus room, along with a tiled kitchen that maintains a classic and functional layout. Much of the home’s original charm has been preserved, including solid wood interior doors with original glass doorknobs. There are two fireplaces—one in the main living area and another in the basement—adding warmth and character to multiple spaces. An enclosed porch provides additional room to relax and enjoy the changing seasons. The full dual entry basement offers 1,044 square feet of space with a bulkhead entry and a fireplace, and it has already been framed for a full bathroom, bar area, laundry, and recreation room, presenting excellent potential for future expansion. A walk-up attic provides even more storage or the opportunity for additional living space. The home sits on a solid concrete foundation and has seen important updates, including vinyl siding and aluminum gutters and downspouts installed in 2017, as well as double-hung windows with screens installed the same year. The roof is asphalt, and the home is heated by a forced hot water oil system. Recent replacements include the main water line, water heater, and oil tank. Outside, the property continues to impress with a fenced-in yard featuring a heated pool with attached hot tub and a unique sunken patio area complete with an outdoor fireplace. This .44 acre property within the city limits is perfect for entertaining or unwinding in a private setting. This is a rare opportunity to own a spacious, character-filled Colonial in one of Worcester’s most sought-after neighborhoods, offering both timeless appeal and room to grow. Showings begin at the open house. Buyers are encouraged to have pre-approval prior to submitting offers. Offers will be reviewed after the open house. For sale by owner. Serious buyers only. Not interested in investor solicitations, wholesalers, or cash offer companies.
    What the owner loves about this home
    This home has been so much more than just a place to live—it’s where we raised our family and created countless memories we’ll always cherish. From everyday moments to large family gatherings, the private backyard has been a special space where everyone could come together and enjoy time with loved ones. Inside, there was always room for everyone to feel comfortable, grow, and make it their own. The highly rated neighborhood schools added to the sense of community and opportunity that made this location so special to us. While it’s hard to say goodbye, we’re grateful for all the memories this home has given us and hope it brings the next family just as much joy.
