Built on the land that was known during colonial days as Sugar Loaf Hill, George Washington once graced this special nook of in-town Wakefield. Drive past the mature elms and sugar maples that stand watch along the picturesque driveway approaching this Federal style home and you will feel a sense of comfort. Featuring four bedrooms and two full baths, plus a half bath with laundry on the first floor. The updated kitchen is highlighted by a beehive fireplace flanked by built in seating. The dining room opens to a gracious living room with a woodstove that keeps the relaxed and cozy vibe going throughout. A new composite front porch is a lovely place to watch the world go by and the side porch offers a second haven for enjoying the outdoors.
