Located at the SW corner of Wellesley, this property borders South Natick and Elm Bank. In 1862, a cobbler built a workshop on this idyllic site, and a Boston celebrity/artist did a substantial addition in 2000. There are nature views from almost every room in the over 3,000 sq ft of sun-drenched living space, surrounded by thriving gardens. As the Charles River flows, so does the floor plan, which is eclectic and allows for flexibility of room designations. The grand double sided fireplace, with a mantel crafted by the artist owner, welcomes you into this home. Walk through the open, bright kitchen with island to the large sunroom with panoramic views of the Charles. The massive deck and side porch offer outdoor spaces for relaxation. The house is ideal for artists, and gardeners, but it can also appeal to families who enjoy the activities a water community offers. Come and enjoy peace and beauty, with easy access to Wellesley center, downtown Natick and Elm Bank.
