This beautifully landscaped, sprawling estate is located on approximately 27,000 sqft of land in one of Waltham's most desirable areas. Built by the Wellington family in 1902, this home was carefully restored and expanded upon in 2014. The living area lends itself to a well-balanced flow of open and formal spaces radiating casual elegance, offering soaring paneled ceilings and stunning period detail throughout. Newly renovated with a modern granite kitchen featuring a breakfast island and stainless appliances. There are 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full baths and laundry on the second floor. One bedroom functions as a Master, complete with two closets and an ensuite. The third floor features a second master with a full bath, walk in closet as well as a separate sitting area. Additional expansion potential above the oversized one car garage. All major updates have been done. New siding, windows, gas heating systems, central AC, central vac, 200 amp electrical service and more!!

Built by the Wellingtons as a retirement home for the family patriarch, this 4 bedroom home on an oversized lot is showing its age. Its bones are good, but the house is in need of major updating. The home is livable, but major systems are old and need attention. This home has tremendous potential to become a showplace, with its beautiful original woodwork, walkup attic and the original carriage house that was converted into the 2 car garage.
