Opportunity knocks. This old-style Colonial is located in desirable East-Side neighborhood near the common and only a mile to downtown Melrose. It is a solid home with a classic layout. The front foyer is spacious enough for a storage bench for your shoes, and it features french doors that lead to the dining room. The DR is wide open to the fireplaced living room, and the usage of these two rooms could be reversed. The large kitchen is located in the back of the house and has a door leading to the deck. Pull up a barstool and chat with the cook, or set up a cafe style table and gaze out the picture window. Upstairs there are three traditional bedrooms, a full bath and a bonus room which could be converted to a large walk-in closet, used as a nursery or office. The large walk-up attic has potential for expansion. If you're addicted to HGTV it's time to stop watching and take action. This old home awaits its new owners' enthusiasm for rolling up their sleeves and getting to work.
