    What's special

    Landmark Melrose Colonial Revival fit for entertaining and living! Built for Chester Scott Patten, this signature property has drawn eyes for over a century. Colonial Revival details blend with Georgian and Adam style influences crafting a property exuding sophistication as well as comfort with style, all weaving beautifully throughout this sun-dappled elegant beauty. Gorgeous moldings, design symmetry, fabulous scale, rebuilt cupola, French doors and more await. The living room features a wood burning fireplace with gracious mantle and 4-ft brick hearth, surrounded on either side by built-ins with leaded glass. The kitchen is a dream with acute attention paid to detail: custom cabinetry; granite & butcher block; Wolf cooking; pot filler; and built-ins galore. Master bedroom boasts a sitting room, dressing room and bath, plus balcony. Sited in one of Melrose's most prestigious areas, this premiere home is situated close to downtown amenities, train, shops, schools and recreation.
