About This Home

As of June 2024

Rare and special Mid-Century Modern atop Wellesley Hills! This spacious home includes many of the hallmarks of the famous Deck House design: soaring ceilings, an open floor plan, spectacular tongue and groove wood ceilings and beams, gorgeous carved doors and walls of glass. The west window walls take in the views of the wooded hillside over Wellesley Hills and seasonal sunsets beyond. Designed for entertaining, the fabulous Mad Men style bar greets guests at the entry hall prior to joining you in the 32' Great Room. Massive original doors lead to the comfortable study. Primary bedroom with updated bath, walk-in closet, cedar closet and picture windows where you wake up to the private woodland view. This home is priced significantly below assessed value to reflect the need for some property restoration to bring this special home back to it's full glory. A very well priced Mid-Century treasure!
