Home Showcase: Prepare to be wowed in Wellesley

Wellesley’s Cliff Estates neighborhood is so desirable, even the most humdrum Colonial would have new buyers lining up.

But 184 Cliff Road is not business as usual. Tucked among the winding roads and resplendent trees of this tony enclave is a property that feels like pulling into a majestic boutique hotel.

Just behind a half-moon driveway, the expansive and putting-green-like, level 2.4-acre grounds are a setting for an extraordinary estate that stands as testament to craftsmanship, intentional design, and just the right amount of imagination. Spanning over 14,000 square feet, the home offers a harmonious balance of grandeur and warmth — every inch thoughtfully planned and immaculately maintained.

Come home to a dramatic foyer with gallery-worthy walls that invite your most treasured art to take center stage. Then, the main floor unfolds into a series of elegant yet livable spaces, including a formal living room and dining room, both anchored by classic fireplaces. The kitchen serves as the heart of the home, blending seamlessly into a sunlit family and sitting room — perfect for everything from lingering over Sunday brunch to lavish summer entertaining. Above you in the family room, beamed, vaulted ceilings soar over picture windows — an inspiring room that invites you to melt into a couch with a good book.

Upstairs, six bedrooms and five baths ensure ample room for family and guests, with custom touches like walk-in closets, window seats, and built-in bookcases and attendant reading nooks. The lower level is a destination in its own right, boasting a state-of-the-art golf simulator, home gym with steam bath, movie-ready media room, and a playroom complete with its own kitchenette.

Outside, curated gardens, multiple porches, and a pergola frame a picture-perfect summer lifestyle. Whether you’re dining alfresco, cozying up by the outdoor fireplace, or kicking a soccer ball around, the grounds are your own secret garden.

On the market for $15,750,000, the sale of the property is represented by Melissa Dailey, Coldwell Banker Global Luxury, 617-699-3922.
