    Property Description

    Some homes have a story to tell. This one is beginning a new chapter. In 2025, this home was carefully moved from Freeport to its new setting in Melrose, where it now rests on a brand-new foundation—quite literally given a fresh start. You'll find today is a home that has been lovingly renewed while still holding onto the character and charm that only time can create. The 2026 taxes currently reflect the value of the vacant lot prior to the home's arrival. Inside, nearly every surface has been touched by thoughtful updates. A beautifully renovated kitchen, updated bathroom, new appliances and mechanicals, nearly every window replaced, fresh flooring, and new paint throughout create a space that feels both timeless and refreshed. It's a rare blend of old soul and modern comfort. The home's layout is as unique as its journey. The kitchen and living room flows naturally into a practical laundry and mudroom space. Just beyond, the bedrooms are tucked away up a few stairs, offering a sense of privacy and retreat. Upstairs, a spacious bonus room invites you to imagine what comes next: a serene primary suite, a cozy family room, a creative studio, a home office, or a place to gather with the people who matter most. Below, the unfinished basement offers room for storage today and possibilities for tomorrow. Set on a generous sized lot, there's space to dream even bigger. Add a shed, a second garage, gardens, or an outdoor living area designed around the life you want to build. This isn't just a home that has been updated. It's a home that has been rescued, renewed, and given the opportunity to start again. Now it's ready for someone new to write the next chapter.
