About This Home
Open houses are Friday (Aug 15, 5:30-7:00 pm), Saturday (Aug 16, 10:30am-12:00pm, 5:30-7:00 pm), and Sunday (Aug 17, 10:30am-12:00pm). Wonderful 1,200 sqft+ cape-style 4bed/1ba SFH in an unbeatable location just blocks from downtown Melrose, easily accessible to Oak Grove (orange line) and Wyoming Hill (commuter rail) as well as some of the best restaurants around! The home is situated on a quiet corner lot and boasts beautiful wrap-around masonry (2024), a new retaining wall (2022), and a meticulously landscaped and tiered patio and fenced-in backyard (2022). Unit has been lovingly and well-maintained—roof, siding, and chimney improvements are less than 5 years old and the unit features new plumbing (basement), sub-flooring (upstairs), ceilings (living room and laundry), as well as a brand-new boiler and hot water tank (2025). 3-car parking and covered patio with recessed lighting provides tranquil space for outdoor dining, relaxing, and reading. We look forward to seeing you there!
