Hard to find 1BR unit at much desired Melrose Towers, on TOP floor, with Southern exposure overlooking Ell Pond. This unit is unique with its custom woodcraftsman walls, hardwood floors and an updated kitchen. Enjoy the beautiful spring weather on your balcony, and when the summer comes, take a dip in the well maintained outdoor pool (there is also an indoor pool, too, handy in the inclement weather!). The solarium is a bright attractive space to read, work, or have lunch with friends, and the grounds of the Towers are beautifully cared for - there is even a peaceful bench next to the waterfall. Convenience is KEY! - Easy access to grocery, pharmacies, restaurants, bus and train. Note that in this building (53), hot water is included in the fee. Common laundry, one deeded parking space (#17G) in a convenient spot, ample visitor parking and a storage closet (7G) is on the first floor across from elevator. Don't miss this great opportunity to make this your own!
