Welcome to Woodlea-Melrose District! Originally it was the Melrose Manor Porter (P.W.) Womack development that was started 1947. The first owner was Albert H & Dorothy Bolin. Albert was a sales manager for Cudahy meats at 4101 E Van Buren. The initial home price was $8,800. The home was expanded from its original sq ft of 1125 to 2377. This Mid-century classic home has so much to offer and needs some tender loving care, lots of custom touches like knotty elder kitchen cabinets with concrete counter tops in the kitchen, built-in bookcases in the living room and a corner hutch in the dining room. Lovely crown moldings throughout most of the downstairs house. The primary bedroom suite is an awesome space, light and bright with a balcony overlooking the back yard. The detached studio is perfect place to get away, it has electricity and needs plumbing. The backyards has so much to offer. This is an amazing neighborhood within walking distance to the light rail, restaurants, shops, a local pharmacy and more. This special neighborhood is like a small town within the city. They host monthly First Friday neighbor gatherings (during the cool months), semiannual neighborhood barbecues, annual neighborhood yard sales, the 7th Avenue, street fair and every year the entire neighborhood is lit up with beautiful luminaries during the month of December. All of this with no HOA! Walk score 63, Bike score 93
