Welcome to this classic detached stone Cape Cod style home in the heart of Melrose Park. This home has been well maintained and lovingly cared for by the same family for over 35 years. With over 2,300 interior sq ft the living room features a gas fitted natural look fireplace with a stone hearth, doors that open onto the front porch, built-in shelving and is carpeted with hardwood floors beneath. There is a separate dining room and the eat-in kitchen has a SS refrigerator and SS dishwasher. Two bedrooms make up the main floor and there are two bedrooms on the upper floor (one is set up as an office). Off the kitchen is a spacious patio and a two-tiered yard ideal for entertaining. If you're looking for privacy this home is set back off the street and situated on a sizeable lot that is just shy of one-third of an acre. The lower level lot is also part of the property and provides a private retreat for relaxing or children's play. It is located in a very desirable neighborhood, walkable to Myers Elementary School and convenient to shopping and major arteries. Additionally, this home is located in a geographic area that qualifies you for a grant up to $10,000.
