About this home

Condo Alternative! This meticulously renovated Cape-style home offers the perfect blend of classic charm and modern efficiency, featuring a total top-to-bottom transformation.

Both bathrooms have been addressed with a stylishly renovated full bath and the addition of a brand-new half bath, ensuring this turnkey property feels like new construction. Large level lot and parking for two cars. Close to Commuter Rail and 93/95. Close proximity to Stoneham square as well as Melrose commuter station. Offers, if any, due Monday by 12:00 noon.
