Welcome to your dream home in Melrose’s coveted neighborhood near the Fells! This enchanting 6-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial blends timeless charm with modern comforts on a tree-lined street with a private backyard retreat. Its distinctive grotto-like façade opens to inviting outdoor spaces—three patios, a mahogany deck, and a stone oasis—perfect for both entertaining and relaxation. Inside, a welcoming center staircase sets the tone for the home’s gracious style. High ceilings and a charming dining room with fireplace create a warm, open feel, while the sun-drenched family room with a dramatic wall of windows frames lush outdoor views. The open kitchen and living area suit everyday life, and a versatile front room with oversized closets offers space for a mudroom or sitting room. A flexible third-floor retreat with two bedrooms and a full bath adds options for guests, family, or work-from-home. The front lawn is a neighborhood hub, fostering gatherings and a true sense of community.
