About this home

Beautifully maintained and perfectly sited between the Melrose Common, bus to the T, downtown and conservation land where you can hike, fish, canoe or kayak. This right size home features a spacious living room with a fireplace, picture window that bathes the space in natural light and offers pretty views. The updated kitchen boasts stainless appliances, pretty tile backsplash and the space flows nicely into the adjoining dining room with matching built-in cabinets. Two generous size bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet, and an updated full bath with a marble topped vanity and subway tile complete this level of the home. A third bedroom includes an en suite bath. The walk up attic offers great storage space. If you enjoy hosting barbecues then you will appreciate the large deck and private backyard with storage shed. The garage under will keep you and your car dry in stormy weather and includes direct access to the inside of the home. Nothing to do but unpack!
