Property Description
Rare opportunity to own a classic center entrance Colonial situated on a level corner lot in Melrose's sought-after Upper East Side. This home has lots of charm and offers tremendous potential to make it your own. The front-to-back living room features a fireplace, built-in bookcases, and beautiful crown molding. A formal dining room showcases a built-in china cabinet, chair rail, and matching crown moldings. The oversized kitchen includes a well-defined work area and a generous dining space that opens directly to a 16' x 12' screened-in porch. The spacious primary bedroom includes a closet that goes to the attic. All BR's enjoy hardwood flooring. The lower level offers additional finished front to back space perfect for a family room - plus an older half bath ready for updating. A charming yard and garage/driveway parking off Norman Road complete the package. While the home does need cosmetic updates, it is truly a diamond in the rough. Located in one of Melrose's prime neighborhoods
