Picture-Book Perfect: 9 Dunedin Road
Renovated Farmhouse Colonial Charm Meets Modern Open Living
The Story: A rare blend of 1920s period detail and 21st-century luxury, 9 Dunedin Road is the quintessential Wellesley Hills "forever home." This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom farmhouse Colonial spans 2,607 square feet of meticulously updated living space. Originally built in 1928, the home underwent a significant transformation in 2000 and has since been further refined with gourmet kitchen upgrades and a newly renovated au pair suite.
According to our Wellesley Dashboards, property values in the Fiske School district continue to outpace regional averages. While the property last traded in 2020 for $1,315,000, the current Inventory Tracker and Redfin Estimates now place its market value at approximately $1,850,000, reflecting the extreme scarcity of high-quality renovated Colonials in this price bracket.
The Strategy:
The "Sun-Splashed" Kitchen: We focused on the high-end cherry cabinetry, granite counters, and open flow into the family room, positioning it as the "heart of the home" for modern families.
Flexible Living Space: Highlighted the walk-out finished basement and the separate entrance for the au pair/in-law suite, catering to the growing demand for multi-generational living or private home offices.
Outdoor Lifestyle: Leveraged the classic farmer's porch and professional landscaping to create an emotional connection with buyers looking for New England charm.
Location Authority: Emphasized the ultra-quiet neighborhood and proximity to PAWS and Fiske Elementary, major selling points for young families in 02481.
The Outcome: 9 Dunedin Road stands as a "gold standard" for the 02481 market—a home that preserves its historic soul while delivering the open-concept lifestyle today’s buyers crave. It remains a key benchmark for property valuations in the Dunedin neighborhood.
