Property description
Location! This beautiful Greenwood area CE Col is a charming 3 bedroom house. Located on a quiet st with lots of trees just across the Melrose border. Walk to the commuter stop, bus, Crystal Lake, and shopping areas. The 1st fl consists of a lovely foyer and a huge FPLR with built-in shelves; great HW fl throughout, a formal DR with a built-in china cabinet and wood moldings. Off the DR is a 3 season porch with windows that make it a sunny retreat. The kitchen needs some updating for those looking for a more modern touch. Off the 2nd floor landing is the huge and well lit MBR which accommodates a king size bed. The newly renovated main bath and 2 additional bedrooms complete the floor. Full walk up attic that has pretty windows could be finished off into a FR or bedroom. Detached 2 car garage. The elec and insulation has been updated, house was recently painted and the roof is 9 years old. The furnace is in working condition but could use updating. Fully fenced in backyard with patio.
