This timeless Gambrel Colonial, set in Wellesley Farms, combines classic New England charm with modern comfort. The home’s distinctive roofline, cedar shingle accents, and welcoming entry are framed by mature landscaping and a brick walkway. Step into the interior, where a sun-filled foyer leads to a living room with a fireplace and an open dining room, both featuring French doors that open to the yard. The bright white kitchen features stainless steel appliances, soapstone countertops, and a peninsula, along with an expansive picture window that overlooks the private grounds. Upstairs, four bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests, and/or a home office. The backyard oasis features a sparkling in-ground pool, a generous patio, and lush plantings—perfect for entertaining and relaxing. There is also a finished lower-level bonus space and a two-car garage—steps away from Brown Field and the park, and just minutes from commuter routes and rail.
