About This Home
As of June 2026Nestled on one of Melrose’s most desirable tree-lined streets, this spacious 4-bdrm +, 3-bath split Cape on Garfield Rd offers big space in a serene beautiful neighborhood! Love the expansive, sun-filled LR featuring a fireplace & views of the front & back yard & the generous DR connects to a spacious kitchen w/a slider leading to a big deck & nice flat yard—perfect for entertaining, play or relaxing outdoors.The layout offers 2 bdrms on the main level & 2 additional bdrms on the 3rd, providing excellent separation of space. 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!
