Welcome to the 1885 model home of the Woodland Avenue Development, known locally as the “Cerretani Home”. As a result, this 19th century “show house” oozes with pretty upgrades and extensive woodwork, with an amazing oak paneled foyer and wood cutout balustrade split staircase. Among the many details of this 10-room, 5-bedroom Queen Anne Victorian home are: lots of stained glass, paneled dining room, gleaming parquet and oak floors, wood ceilings on first floor except kitchen, French doors, high ceilings and great moldings and oversized windows. Updated huge kitchen with ˝ bath and newer appliances. Four bedrooms on second floor, including sizable master with new bath featuring marble, subway tile and Jacuzzi tub. The third floor has an additional bedroom and renovated office/bedroom. Beautiful yard with signature roses, daylilies, assorted perennials and a spectacular azalea show in spring. Secret herb garden behind the carriage house. The carriage house has additional loft space. Located in the highly desirable Melrose Highlands and the gateway to one of the nicest Victorian neighborhoods in Melrose, this property is walking distance to the commuter rail, Fells Reservation and all schools.
