OVERVIEW
Located just 14 miles west of Boston, Wellesley offers suburban charm with convenient city access. From Wellesley Farms to Dana Hall, the Wellesley area is full of sub-neighborhoods known for their luxury homes, historic architecture, and scenic settings.
The area is not only connected to the city by MBTA Commuter Rail, but also has easy access to the Mass Pike (I-90) for commuters. Positioned just beyond the I-95 belt, Wellesley stands out with larger home lots and a more suburban feel compared to its closer neighbors, Newton and Brookline. The town center is a hub featuring an array of shops and local businesses, fostering a close-knit community for its 29,000 residents.

Recreational Attractions
Wellesley offers a variety of attractions that enhance its suburban appeal:
- Morses Pond Beach: A popular spot for relaxation and outdoor activities, offering sandy shores for sunbathing, opportunities for kayaking, and picnic areas.
- Davis Museum at Wellesley College: A superb art museum with free admission, housing a collection first assembled in the 1880s.
- Brook Path (Fuller Brook Park): A scenic trail tracing Fuller Brook for more than three miles through central Wellesley, popular for walking and biking.
The prestigious Wellesley College adds a touch of academic prominence to this primarily residential town, which has a limited industrial footprint. Beyond Wellesley College, the town is renowned for its exceptional public school system, consistently ranked among the top in Massachusetts. This commitment to education makes Wellesley a sought-after destination for families prioritizing academic excellence.
Neighboring Weston is often mentioned alongside Wellesley in housing discussions, but each town offers unique characteristics that set them apart.
