Perched high in Melville Park, this lovingly restored 1883 Queen Anne Victorian brings back the classical grace, charm and detail of a bygone era. The grand foyer which leads you to the formal sitting room and parlor both boast high ceilings, intricate crown moldings, fireplaces, and are the perfect setting for entertaining. The owners focused on the most finite details when picking out each period feature. The wall paper throughout the home is a replica of the original wall paper found in the 19th Century. The kitchen has been renovated offering today’s modern conveniences without sacrificing the integrity of the style of the home. Second and third floors offer plenty of space, including a primary suite, home office and room for an au-pair. The detached carriage house overlooking the lush gardens is perfect for family, long term guests or an additional investment. Amazing location is a quick walk to Shawmut train stop, short drive downtown, Logan airport and the highway.
