About This Property

Gracious mid-century Colonial, set on a well-manicured lot in a quiet Horace Mann neighborhood, yet convenient to MBTA transportation, schools, and the bustling shops, restaurants, and cultural activities that today's Melrose offers. Bright, spacious rooms on the main floor open to a cozy sun room and to an extended deck that overlooks your own "secret garden" for relaxing and entertaining. (NG barbeque is included.) The current owners have maintained the house meticulously with an eye to comfort and convenience: new roof, newer burner on a W-M gas furnace and premium d-p windows, a whole  house fan, and a recent exterior repainting. Lots of storage, augmented by a welcome kitchen pantry and many built-ins in the large basement, A second water meter provides savings for the built-in sprinkler system for the perennials and annuals in the garden.This is the house you've been waiting for. Don't miss this chance.
