One of the most beautifully sited homes in all of Melrose, this exceptional and picturesque Cape Cod style home is nestled on a private lot in a highly desirable neighborhood tucked away amongst the trees and birds, yet walking distance to the commuter rail, library and downtown shops and restaurants. Typical of a seller who is an engineer, all of the systems and house maintenance have been meticulously performed throughout his ownership. Meanwhile, the classic details, gleaming wood floors, fresh paint and updated kitchen are very attractive. Note the fireplace in the living room, along with the crown molding, 8/8 windows and the twin China closets in the dining room with fluted pilasters. Library features knotty pine paneling original to the home. Fabulous oversized three-season porch above garage. Sprinkler system. Great workshop space in the lower level. This Cape is a true gem. |
