About this home

Enjoy all Melrose has to offer in this charming one-of-a kind Colonial which is being offered for the first time in 50 years.

An oversized living room is centered with a beautiful craftsman designed fireplace. The spacious dining room has a corner built-in cabinet. There is also an eat-in kitchen, family room with a wood burning stove and a finished basement. The artistically designed fieldstone façade stands out in a great neighborhood located close to Mount Hood, the Winthrop School, churches, ballparks and all other conveniences. An easy to care for corner lot provides 2 separate parking areas. Beautifully landscaped grounds. They simply don’t build them like this anymore!
