""My wife had zero professional experience, no schooling in that regard," said 93-year-old Wolozin who is now selling the home at 39 Indian Ridge Road for about $1 million (he says they bought it for just around $40,000). "She did the entire house, the entire interior design, the entire decor, and I humbly say she got a lot of very, very good marks over the years.""
"The majority of the home's rooms, from the entryway and the kitchen to the primary suite and bathrooms, are adorned in colorful patterns; the den and the Wolozins' daughter's former bedroom boast original wallpaper. In the primary suite's bathroom, Norma had a special request for the blue and white floral wallpaper she'd selected. "She wanted - and eventually got - wallpaper on the ceiling," Wolozin said. "One wallpaper installer would not do that ... but we got someone else.""
The 1967 contemporary sits on the Natick and Dover line and represents preserved midcentury suburban development from the post‑World War II housing boom. Owner Larry Wolozin and his late wife, Norma, lived in the house since it was built and maintained much of the original interior design. Norma applied whimsical wallpaper and vibrant nylon carpeting throughout the home, creating bold color schemes such as bright blue carpets in the main living area and cherry‑red and rust tones in bedrooms. Several rooms retain original wallpaper, the primary bath features wallpaper on the ceiling, and the house includes a built‑in indoor hot tub.
