Wellesley Hills is an attractive, walkable suburban village with tree‑lined streets, a lively center of cafes, boutiques and farmers’ markets, easy access to parks and Lake Waban, and cultural programming from nearby Wellesley College — a comfortable, pleasant place to base yourself for multi‑week assignments.
Commuter rail and highways make Boston (≈15–20 miles) and Cambridge (≈20 miles) easy weekend escapes for big‑city dining, museums, sports and nightlife.
