Positioned just moments from downtown Melrose, this well-maintained two-family offers a rare opportunity to own in one of the city's most sought-after and convenient locations. From coffee shops and restaurants to local boutiques, the library, parks, commuter rail, and seasonal farmers market, everything that makes Melrose such a desirable place to live is right outside your door. With a NEW ROOF and the first-floor unit now VACANT, the property offers added flexibility for an owner-occupant or investor. Both units feature updated kitchens with stone countertops, generous living spaces, and wood floors throughout much of each unit. The second-floor unit is currently occupied by a tenant-at-will. A shared outdoor patio creates additional space to relax or gather, while four off-street parking spaces provide a valuable convenience rarely found this close to downtown. Whether you're looking to move right in while generating rental income or add to your investment portfolio, this property combines location, flexibility, and opportunity in the heart of Melrose.
