    What's special

    Classic, circa 1900, colonial style home on a lovely, tree-lined street in the heart of the coveted Country Club area of Melrose! This residence boasts superb architectural detail and a circular flow of 6 rooms, 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths and over 1200 sq ft of living space on 2 floors with gleaming hardwood floors throughout; high ceilings; a dining room with built-in hutch and a bright, sunny eat-in- kitchen. A few of the wonderful amenities of this home are a charming front porch, gas heating and cooking, central air and a walk-up attic and full basement for storage. Updates include a new roof and windows in 2005, heating in 2006, hot water tank in 2010 and 100 Amp electrical service. A Beacon Hill style rear patio provides maintenance free living for the discerning buyer. A truly special home in a friendly, welcoming neighborhood where homes rarely go on the market. Excellent condo alternative in a prime location close to thriving downtown Melrose, bus stop and commuter rail.
