Step back in time and discover the undeniable charm of this exquisite American Four Square in the coveted Melrose Heights Historic District! Picture yourself walking up onto the inviting wrap-around porch of this Circa 1900 corner-lot gem, perfectly blending original architectural details with thoughtful modern updates. Imagine welcoming guests through the original single-pane double front door, beautifully adorned with a striking Greco-Roman entablature, pilasters, and a transom window. Inside, a gracious layout unfolds, featuring a formal dining room and not one, but two living rooms - a formal space and an extra-large living room with a newly remodeled full bathroom. Both areas boast original hardwood floors and soaring high ceilings, exuding timeless elegance. The chef in you will adore the bright and airy kitchen, complete with sleek quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances (including a new range and dishwasher installed in 2024), a cozy breakfast area, and an exceptionally large pantry for all your culinary needs. Ascend to the second story to discover four comfortable bedrooms. Bedroom one is a true highlight, featuring double closets and elegant French doors that gracefully open to the expansive wrap-around porch, offering a private outdoor retreat. The unique bedroom two is a charming enclosed sleeping porch, bathed in natural light that streams through its delightful groupings of six-over-six light windows. Outdoor living is a true pleasure in the spacious, fenced backyard, featuring a lovely patio perfect for entertaining and ample green space for all your favorite activities. Adding to the property's character is an architecturally significant craftsman-style one-and-one-half-story brick two-car garage with a distinctive clipped front-gable roof. Living in Melrose Heights is more than just owning a beautiful home; it's embracing a vibrant lifestyle.
