About This Home
Much bigger than it appears! This fully updated Cape features 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths spread across three fully-finished levels. Plenty of room to spread out in the giant living room with charming pellet stove & in the open floor plan kitchen/dining area. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a very large primary. The lower level in-law suite has a separate walk-out entrance (requiring NO STAIRS from the driveway), which opens up so many possibilities: extended family living, teen suite, au pair quarters, or maybe the possibility of rental income from an ADU. Endless summertime fun awaits in the fully fenced yard, on the recently renovated deck, & on the charming brick patio. Many recent updates including BRAND NEW A/C system. Phenomenal location 1 mile to commuter rail, close to bus and Orange Line, less than 2 miles to the Fells, very close to all schools and the Early Childhood Center, & near numerous shops, restaurants and markets in downtown Melrose.
