**Seller is offering $2,500 in concessions toward buyer's closing costs, rate buy-down, or upgrades.**There's a certain charm you simply can't recreate in new construction, and 946 Melrose has it in spades. From the beautiful Charleston brick flooring and timeless architectural details to the solid construction and thoughtful layout, this home offers the character and craftsmanship that make a house feel like home.The main home features three bedrooms upstairs, plus a massive FROG (finished room over the garage) that offers endless flexibility. Use it as a fourth bedroom, home office, gym, media room, playroom, or whatever best fits your lifestyle.The heart of the home is a thoughtfully designed kitchen featuring high-quality cabinetry, ample storage, and timeless finishes. Throughout the main living spaces, you'll find architectural details that add both character and warmth, including custom built-ins, a coffered ceiling, and a classic fireplace that creates a natural gathering space. These are the kinds of details that give the home a sense of craftsmanship and permanence that's difficult to replicate in newer construction. One of the home's standout features is the attached garage that has been converted into a separate living space with its own bathroom. With its private setup, it's ideal for an in-law suite, guest quarters, or multigenerational living. It could also provide an opportunity to be an income-producing rental. Outside, you'll find a covered carport and a large detached outbuilding with electricity, offering additional options for storage, hobbies, a workshop, or workspace. The spacious living areas open naturally to an inviting screened porch, creating an ideal setting for morning coffee, casual dinners, or relaxing with friends. Combined with the established setting, mature landscaping, and flexible floor plan, 946 Melrose offers something that's increasingly hard to find: a well-built home with character, quality, and room to make it your own.
