Classically styled turn of the century charmer enjoys that coveted downtown location, master bath and garage while boasting stylish appointments and scale. Thoughtful updates and original details make living here a delight: Bosch heat, C/A on 2/3, moldings, oak floors and generous room proportions with an open flow, all bathed in sunlight. Updated kitchen, a perfect household hub, hosts granite, cherry cabinets & dining peninsula. Top floor master retreat features a vaulted ceiling BR with sitting area, a perfect place to settle in with a book, walk-in closet and full bath; 3 generous bedrooms and full bath on the second. The fenced yard offers an oasis in the city with mature plantings and patio, and the mudroom leads to either to the driveway with 2 car garage or the yard. Situated within Melrose's thriving downtown ring, this home is a short hop to shopping, dining and cultural events, the Common, schools, bus, train and the Fells. This is the one that will check all the boxes!
