The 1st level includes a large FRM/Rec RM w/another FP, Office & Full BA, making it an excellent setup for extended family or potential in-law suite. 2-car garage w/direct entry, plus an additional detached rear garage ideal for storage/workshop. Tucked away yet close to everything...less than a mile from the MBTA Commuter rail & just a block from the Orange Line bus, & moments from bustling Melrose Square, restuarants, shopping, The Common & major rts!
