Updated, classically comfortable Colonial Revival on amazing double lot in Wellesley’s top Farms neighborhood. This lovely home experienced a major 21st Century renovation and expansion which carefully melded time-honored details with modern systems, kitchen, baths and an elegant master suite. The sunny and walk-out lower level surprises with an exceptionally interesting family room and two bright bedrooms, one of which would make a great office with french doors to the garden. The land has been subdivided into two lots offering many options: 1.) Keep and enjoy beautiful home with private 52K lot and gardens. 2.) Keep and build accessory home or building on second lot included 38 Ravine Road. 3.) Build new larger home in place of current home with no impact of demo delay until November 2020. Buyer and agent to verify all with town. A truly unique opportunity in the most coveted of all Wellesley neighborhoods.
