About this home

Tucked along a quiet, tree-lined street near the banks of the Charles River, 25 Columbia Street is a rare and dignified offering—a living heirloom in one of Wellesley’s most scenic and accessible areas. This circa 1790 Colonial is one of the town’s oldest surviving residences. Lovingly curated by its current owners, the home balances timeless charm with modern comforts. Inside, you'll find a renovated chef’s kitchen, updated bathrooms, central air conditioning, and new thermal windows. Warm wood floors, hand-forged hardware, wood-burning fireplace and detailed trim add to its authenticity. Generous yet intimate, the residence offers 6 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and multiple workspaces, ideal for family life and remote work. The lush backyard abuts conservation land, offering riverfront tranquility, outdoor entertaining space, and mature plantings - all set on a side street with easy access to shops and restaurants, the commuter rail, the T, and major routes.
