This classic center-entrance Colonial graces a lovely corner lot and anchors a beautiful and much sought after neighborhood in Melrose.  The front-to-back living room features a pretty mantled fireplace. Hardwood floors run throughout the home (except in den.) Off of the living room is a den that makes for the perfect playroom or office and features sliders to the deck. The formal dining room is light-filled and has a sweet built-in china cabinet . From there, enter the updated kitchen which boasts granite counters, cherry cabinets and an eating area that has served up a generation of meals for a family of six. The under-garage has interior access - take that winter! Don't miss the much loved gardens and deck where the owners have enjoyed spending lots of time in warm months. The location can't be beat - quick access to 93, walk to Oak Grove, walk to downtown, and walk to Lynn Fells Reservation.   Welcome Home!
