Perched atop a sun-drenched hill, this classic Cape radiates warmth and possibility. Natural light streams through generous windows, dancing across gleaming hardwood floors and creating an uplifting atmosphere throughout. The living room, anchored by a stately fireplace, offers an inviting space for relaxation and entertainment. Though ready for your personal touch in the kitchen, this home's solid bones and thoughtful layout provide an excellent foundation for creating your dream culinary space. The strategic hilltop position ensures both privacy and commanding views of the surrounding area. Storage solutions abound with both basement space and an under-garage area, perfect for organizing seasonal items and hobbies. Outside, established perennial gardens lie dormant, promising a spectacular show of color and texture come spring. The expansive driveway offers flexibility - maintain as-is or reimagine a portion as additional green space. Embrace the perfect blend of established charm

Charming, beautifully set and meticulously stewarded, this Cape Cod style property exudes a warmth and sense of home. Nestled in the Greenwood neighborhood, steps to the train and shops and a short jaunt to Melrose’s Highlands area amenities, the location is top-notch. The LR centers around a wood burning fireplace and is bathed in lovely natural light on three sides, while the adjoining three season porch is an escape to enjoy a cuppa or your latest zoom. Dining room hosts a built-in corner china cabinet and opens to the vintage kitchen featuring its 1960's stove, they simply don’t make things the way they used to! The second level holds two generous BRs, both with good nooks and access to storage, and full bath. Relax in the shaded and sunny yard or give your green-thumb a work out, with scale to create your oasis. Garage under. The owners have embraced the role of caretaker, preserving details while updating (roof & then some). Nearby bus to Oak Grove, 2 trains and recreation!
