About This Home

As of August 2019

Located in one of Melrose's architecturally richest neighborhoods in a mid 19thc cul-de-sac sits a beauty of an Italianate on over ½ acre of land with a two-car carriage house and views toward Boston and Fells Reservation, ideally located walking distance to the commuter rail, parks, secondary school complex, shops and restaurants. Enjoy modern conveniences like an open family room and kitchen, air conditioning and oodles of quality updates, coupled with history (Mary Livermore's daughter lived here), lovely period appointments including extensive crown moldings, expansive windows, French doors, Chelsea tile fireplace with Corinthian column mantle, curved staircase, oak flooring with mahogany in-lay, soaring ceilings and built-ins scattered throughout, all sited privately and beautifully. This property was built to enjoy 3 levels of living, the sweeping side porch and private yard. Thoughtfully & meticulously stewarded, the owners have spared no expense to update and improve. A beauty!
