Located about 16 miles west of Boston, Wellesley, Massachusetts is a special market for a couple of reasons. Along with the easy commute to the city, great school systems and robust history, Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® Sales Associate Melissa Dailey says Wellesley has one of the most vibrant town centers in the Boston suburbs.
Featuring shopping, dining and community events, Wellesley Square is a draw for people looking to get out of the city, or just move to a different town outside of Boston. The two colleges located in the town add to this community culture and attract buyers from all over the county.
149 Bristol Road features a stone wall and patio overlooking the manicured lawn.
“We really draw from every kind of market,” Dailey says. “We have a large number of buyers coming from Boston. Our relocation market is also very strong. Plus, we have buyers from neighboring towns that will end up wanting to live in Wellesley.”
Thanks to the lively atmosphere, energetic community and popularity of the town, its real estate market is consistently very strong. Dailey notes that, since the start of 2023, the market has already been pretty robust.
“I feel like we're a niche little market because there's people who come to me that really just want to live in Wellesley or Weston or Needham, so people come here already knowing that they want to live here,” Dailey says.
Personal Touch
With plenty of land and a spacious fire pit, 194 Pond Road is a great property for entertaining.
Ranked number one producer in Massachusetts with over 20 years of real estate experience with the Coldwell Banker® brand, it’s safe to say Dailey knows her market, and her clients, well.
“I give all of my buyers and sellers a lot of attention,” she says. “There’s some people that need a little bit more guidance than others, but it’s just about really knowing your buyers and sellers and what they want, and doing everything you can to meet their needs.”
No matter who the client is or what their desires are, Dailey notes that one thing remains true for everyone—a home is about as personal as it gets. It’s more than an asset or simply a shelter, it’s a place to raise a family and make memories.
“I love making buyers and sellers happy,” Dailey says. “People’s houses are so personal, so to help buyers find the right house is definitely very rewarding.”
