Quintessential New England Dutch Colonial situated in Melrose's "Pill Hill", a quiet enclave nestled in the middle of Cedar Park. This custom built home, constructed in 1930, has only had 2 owners. Quality craftsmanship is visible throughout the property starting with a one-of-a-kind 'medieval club room' the perfect spot for game nights and/or cocktails beside the stone fireplace. The very considerable formal living and dining rooms are wrapped with wainscot and crown molding. A large working kitchen with two sinks, cooktop and wall oven awaits your custom renovation with the possibility of a built-in pizza oven. The four + generous bedrooms on the second floor have great closets/storage and the primary bedroom includes a private en-suite. Enjoy the screen porch just off the foyer overlooking the patio and large, lush back yard. Two car garage, access to public transportation and convenience to downtown Melrose with all of its quaint shops and restaurants. This is a "Don't Miss"!
