Property Description


0.15 Acres Lot
Built in 1939
For Sale - Active
Units n/a

Experience storybook historic living in this enchanting Yaple Park gem. Truly a special home retaining much of its original charm and character. A garden paradise connects the 3BR/2BA main house (1,121 sqft) to fully-permitted guest quarters (204 sqft), adding the flexibility of a home studio, den, or 4th bedroom. The adjoining 2-car garage is air conditioned and offers additional parking, storage, or play area. Roof, HVAC, plumbing, sewer, and electrical systems are updated. In addition, replaced windows open for cross breezes and fresh air. Wood flooring and original tilework are in excellent condition, and clues of preserved history are throughout: A speakeasy grille on the front door, a milk box by the side yard, built-in corner hutches, a wall niche for the doorbell, etc. Covered patio has a jasmine canopy as two fan palms tower above an oasis of mature backyard landscaping. The driveway includes a carport, custom steel gate leading to the garage, and grass-crete to allow turf areas to be driven on. A gated dog run by the property's rear adds room to roam. This gorgeous home is three blocks from the light rail and in the heart of Melrose. Enjoy being steps away from vintage shops and award-winning restaurants, and don't forget coffee from Lux or Copper Star Cafe.
