About This Home
As of June 2015This charming Colonial home is perched on a generous size lot in the desirable Highlands location of Melrose. The welcoming foyer invites you into a bright & open living rm & dining rm full of natural woodwork, hardwood floors & a built-in china cabinet. The eat-in kitchen & half bath have been remodeled with tile flooring, kit granite countertop and gas stove. You will absolutely love the oversized enclosed porch off the dining rm looking over a large private yard. Perfect for relaxing & entertaining family & friends. Second floor offers 3 bedrooms & a full bath making this a classic home. You can't see it from the street, but tons of parking in back. Talk about convenience! Pull up the driveway, park & go in the back door with your groceries. You can't beat the access to the bus stop around the corner, the commuter rail a few blocks away and the "T" is just a bus ride or short car ride. The hot water tank is newer. This home is ready for the new owner to move-in!
