Dana Hall Houses for Sale

Dana Hall, a neighborhood in Wellesley, Massachusetts, is known for its walkability and close-knit community feel. Located about 17 miles southwest of downtown Boston, it offers easy access to Wellesley’s town center, where residents can enjoy local features such as Truly’s ice cream shop, Wellesley Books, Clementine boutique, Cocobeet smoothie bar, and Wasik’s Cheese Shop. The neighborhood is characterized by its beautiful rustic homes, including colonial revival houses, single-story brick homes, stone English cottages, and large wooden colonials, all set on relatively small lots with big oak trees and sidewalks. The Brook Path, a two-and-a-half mile stone-dust walk, runs through the area, adding to its charm. Dana Hall is home to a private all-girls school of the same name, catering to grades five through 12, and is also served by the highly rated Wellesley public schools, including Wellesley High School. The neighborhood is safer than the national average, making it a desirable place for families. Residents can walk to the Wellesley Square station on the commuter rail for convenient travel to Boston’s South Station or Worcester. The community includes a mix of commuters, remote workers, and long-term residents, including some staff from Wellesley College.
