About this home
Step into a piece of Lincoln history at the Deacon Edmund Wheeler House, a remarkable circa-1775 residence in the heart of town. Thoughtfully renovated and beautifully maintained, this special home seamlessly blends the character and craftsmanship of a historic property with the comfort and convenience of modern living. Original wide-plank pine floors, multiple fireplaces, detailed moldings and timeless architectural character are complemented by an updated eat-in kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and generous space for everyday gathering. The romantic formal dining room is centered around a grand fireplace and French doors, creating an inviting setting for both intimate dinners and entertaining. A fireplaced home office with custom cherry built-ins offers a warm and sophisticated workspace, while first-floor laundry and a mudroom add everyday functionality. Modern upgrades include central air conditioning, a security system and a new heating system, providing added efficiency and peace of mind. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite has been thoughtfully designed to maximize both closet and bath space. Outside, professional landscaping, irrigation and a large backyard create a picturesque setting for entertaining, relaxing and play. Rich in history, charm and curb appeal, the Deacon Edmund Wheeler House offers a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of Lincoln’s past without sacrificing the amenities and conveniences of today.
Lincoln Center Historic District, located between Massachusetts Avenue and Lincoln Road, is a historic and civic Lincoln neighborhood with a walkable village green and a classic New England streetscape. The district’s character concentrates around the Lincoln Public Library and Bemis Hall, where brick sidewalks, small civic buildings, and low-key storefronts set a town-center rhythm. Architectural cues lean Colonial Revival and early-20th-century civic design, with preserved facades and tidy setbacks. The deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum adds contemporary art energy just up the road. Trails and open land at nearby Minute Man National Historical Park shape daily routines toward walking and cycling. A commuter rail stop anchors regional connections without breaking the quiet scale.
