About this home

Spring into color with this 1904 Chapman and Frazer Shingle style residence on a 1.56-acre parcel in Wellesley Hills. Available for the first time in 50 years, this architectural masterpiece offers large, gracious rooms and period detail, in a wonderful display of color and craftsmanship. The residence boasts a variety of woods, including red birch flooring and California redwood ceiling beams. The nine-foot ceilings, leaded glass windows and French doors afford abundant natural light into the interior of this South-facing residence. The house offers eight bedrooms, four full baths and two half-baths, and seven fireplaces, six of them wood-burning. The property enjoys an over 1.5 acre parcel with two-car garage, stone walls, and courtyard with fountains. Plantings and mature trees create a sense of privacy, yet the home is close to Wellesley amenities and commuter rail. This house is a treasure, one that may not be available again for another 50 years.
