Note the exposed brick hearth, the pediments over the doors and windows, the small private deck, the gleaming wood floors and you come to the conclusion that this is an extraordinarily charming unit. The condominium development has been meticulously restored by the President of the Victorian Melrose Society, Barbara Gilchrist, whose background is in art and design. This gorgeous two-bedroom unit offers an open-style new kitchen with granite countertops. Super convenient laundry in stylish new full bath. Garage space and extra designated parking spot. This unit is the perfect blend of contemporary living while maintaining the architectural integrity of this historic house, “one of the best examples of Italianate architecture,” according to the inventory done by the Melrose Historical Commission for the State. Walking distance to commuter rail, Fells Reservation, Library and elementary school. Known as the Lewis G. Coburn House, unit 1 was on the Secret Gems of Melrose House tour in June as one of the best examples of Italianate architecture in Melrose.
