Westgate Grandeur: 62 Westgate Road
Expansive Colonial Living on a Pristine Half-Acre Lot
The Story: This 3,470-square-foot residence features 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, offering a "grand-scale" living experience. Sold for $1,770,000 in October 2020, the property has seen significant value appreciation, with a current Zestimate of $2,463,000.
The home’s layout is designed for both formal entertaining and daily family life. Highlights include a gracious formal living room, a dining room with a custom wet bar, and a bright sunroom/family room. The second floor features a serene master suite with a vaulted ceiling, dressing area, and multiple closets. Outdoor living is equally prioritized with a completely enclosed rear yard, patio, and extensive landscaping.
Our Wellesley Dashboards indicate that properties on half-acre lots in the Bates Elementary district (just 0.2 miles away) are among the town's most sought-after assets. This sale highlights the premium buyers place on large, private lots within walking distance of top-tier schools.
The Strategy:
Promoting "Scale and Scope": Focused on the 5-bedroom layout and 3,400+ sq. ft., positioning it as a "forever home" for growing families.
The Entertainment Edge: Highlighted the custom wet bar and formal dining/living spaces as ideal features for hosting social gatherings.
Master Suite Sanctuary: Positioned the expansive master suite with its vaulted ceilings and dressing area as a "private wing" for the homeowners.
Indoor-Outdoor Synergy: Emphasized the French doors leading to the sunroom and the private, professionally landscaped backyard as a seamless extension of the living space.
The Outcome: 62 Westgate Rd is a benchmark for the "upper-tier" Colonial market in Wellesley. Its appreciation over the last few years confirms the town's robust demand for properties that combine architectural integrity with large, private outdoor spaces.
