About this home
This two-bedroom, one-bath condo at Melrose Towers isn't just a home - it's a lifestyle. Step onto your expansive screened-in patio that runs the entire side of the unit - practically an additional room and your new favorite spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The building delivers resort-style amenities: a spacious outdoor inground pool, tennis and basketball courts, plus an interior pool and sauna for year-round enjoyment. Walk to commuter rail and bus lines for easy Boston access, stroll to shopping and parks, and rest easy knowing that Melrose's excellent school system is available to your children. Impeccably maintained and perfectly sized, this condo works for empty nesters craving convenience, young couples building their future, or a small family with school-aged kids who want community and accessibility. And here's the bonus: it's offered fully furnished, so you can unpack your suitcase and start living. Less maintenance, more living - isn't that what everyone is loo
