Escape to your own sanctuary but still be close to your favorite shops, restaurants and the commuter rail in the Melrose Highlands. This enchanting home invites you in with its farmers porch approach and calms your soul with backyard views reminiscent of a mountain chalet with space inside that provides options for multi-generational living & work from home privacy. Enjoy meal prep in an open kitchen while logs flicker in the fireplace dining room. Let the party step outside into a screened room that spans the width of the home overlooking a private backdrop of evergreens & Vermont maples. A bedroom ensuite in the front of the home allows space for guests while two more bedrooms on the far side of the home share a bath and access to a resort-like pool area fenced for privacy and summer fun. Refreshed with a calming paint palette, grounded in honey colored hardwood floors throughout and perfected with lots of storage or future expansion potential, this home may be just what you need.
