About This Home
As of November 2013Stop - Don't rush through the front door. Settle into the front porch to enjoy the tree-top view, tranquility, and charm of the neighborhood. Once you pass the threshold, you'll like the open floor plan of the fireplaced living room/dining room combination and refreshed kitchen with maple cabinets, granite and glass tiled backsplash. And how hard is it to find a master bath in this price range? Recently renovated, you'll love having your own bath in your second floor bedroom, adjacent to a perfect nursery. Adorable yard features new, large deck. One-car attached garage will keep you and your things dry when you pull into the garage. Nestled into a beautiful Melrose Highlands neighborhood, this Cape boasts gleaming hardwood floors, fresh paint and central air. Walk to commuter rail and Fells Reservation from this fantastic enclave of turn-of-the-century homes. Terrific and compelling value for discriminating buyer.
