Set within Wellesley’s coveted Dana Hall neighborhood, this exceptional Colonial has been transformed into a secluded retreat where architecture, craftsmanship, and livability come together beautifully. Renovated by Flavin Architects and Ken Vona Construction, the home showcases an exacting level of design and detail. A gracious two-story foyer introduces interiors filled with natural light, while quarter-sawn oak floors lead to the formal dining room, where floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors open to a secluded patio. A bright solarium and inviting screened-in porch offer additional spaces to unwind and take in the surrounding landscape.At the heart of the home, the Bulthaup kitchen features premium appliances, a butler’s pantry, double ovens, a full-size wine cooler, and an expansive island that flows into the family room with vaulted ceilings, custom built-ins, and a stone gas fireplace. Five bedrooms and six full baths include a serene primary suite with soaring ceilings, a spa-inspired bath, and a private balcony overlooking the grounds. The finished lower level provides a gym, playroom, wet bar, wine cellar, media room, full bath, and entertainment area. Meticulously landscaped grounds complete this distinctive residence, offering an extraordinary setting for both everyday living and entertaining.
ADU Potential
Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 8,700 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 40,159 sq ft.
Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.
Estimates — not financial advice
These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
