About This Home
As of July 2016Charming brick Bungalow in the highly sought after Melville Park neighborhood. Lovely original detail including natural wood archways in the entry hall and fireplaced living room, as well as wood paneling in the spacious formal dining room. Terrific layout with spacious rooms and a great flow for entertaining. In addition to the living room, dining room and kitchen, the main level has 3 generous bedrooms and a full bathroom. The lower level is mostly finished with a living area (makes a great media/play room or "MAN CAVE"), full bath and bedroom along with a laundry room and utility / storage area. The attic offers expansion opportunities - it is currently one huge open area that could be turned in to living space, a master suite or a number of bedrooms. This property also has a long driveway for several cars and a 2 car garage. Nice back yard and a short distance to Shawmut T as well as area restaurants and shops.
