Built in 1993, this 10rm, 4br, four full bath home sits on a huge 15,000 sq.ft lot on a cul-de-sac in Melrose’s rural outpost along the Mount Hood Conservation land & golf course. This house features a full in-law apt on the lower level. Although this house is only 13 years old, it is time to freshen it up with a little paint and new carpets, and the owners will be giving the buyer back a full one percent of the purchase price towards this end. This is a fantastic opportunity.
