Situated on the east side of Melrose, this elegant 9 rm, 5-bedrm, 1 ½ -bath residence offers abundant opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts. Beautiful streets invite leisurely walks, runs, and rounds of golf. For 45 years, its current owner has not only resided within its walls but has also fostered deep connections with neighbors. Location-wise, this home is a stroll to downtown, Whole Foods, Melrose Wakefield Healthcare, and local schools. With access to Interstate 93 and Route One, commuting to Boston is a breeze. The jewel of this property lies in its backyard: a Magnolia tree in front, lilac trees on both sides of the house, and an apple tree gracing the backyard. Step onto the deck, and you're greeted with an atmosphere of serenity and bliss. The home holds immense potential for expansion and transformation, although perfection as it stands. It's more than just a place to live—it's a sanctuary rooted in community and cherished memories.
