1 Wesleyan St, Shrewsbury, MA 01545

This home was purchased in mid-2020 to complete the renovations that had been started on this beautiful antique New England colonial. The gorgeous wide plank pine floors on the main level have been sanded and refinished, the chimney repointed, while a GAF Timberline roof and locally-made Harvey windows with acoustic mitigation on street-side windows work to mitigate Shrewsbury action for a peaceful living space. The majestic old elm that stands in front of the property survived the affliction of Dutch elm disease, and continues to be maintained by a local arborist. Upcoming projects include fresh paint and covered gutters designed to defend the structural integrity of the home. This 200-year old home has terrific bones, much of the original rock-hard horse-hair plaster, but with modern and thoughtful updates, which continues to be thoughtfully improved (even if you will never find a straight surface in here!). A lovely warm and efficient home which its owners will likely enjoy for many years to come.
