About This Home

As of November 2023

OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED! Quintessential Wakefield colonial looking for new homeowners to call it their own! 28 Meriam greets you with a fantastic front porch overlooking conservation land (breathtaking foliage!) From the second you open the front door, this home is giving all the "homey" feels you have been searching for. Charm is around every corner on the first level (think built in cabinets and original woodwork!) and leads you right into the updated kitchen. The beautiful eat-in kitchen features ample cabinet space & updated appliances- perfect for hosting! Follow the gleaming hardwood floors to the upstairs to the perfectly situated 3 bedrooms and full bathroom. Outside find your detached garage & backyard patio (perfect for summer BBQ's!). Wakefield is a stunning Northshore town close to public transportation, 93, 95 & of course the wonderful downtown bursting with shops, restaurants and Lake Quannapowitt.
