About this home
On a gracious rise along Melrose’s East Side stands one of the city’s defining Colonial Revival residences, a home of uncommon pedigree and enduring architectural distinction.This estate announces itself in measured flourishes—Corinthian columns, dentil and deeply carved crown moldings, a portico approached with quiet ceremony—before yielding to an interior that feels both composed and alive. A bridal staircase arcs upward with theatrical ease; woodwork gleams; a dining room mural lingers like a remembered season. Across more than fifteen rooms and six-plus bedrooms, the proportions invite not only admiration but use: rooms for gathering, for retreat, for the gentle rituals of daily life. Beyond, the grounds unfold as a private resort— heated pool, pergola, and a sweep of green—watched over by a porch off the library. With central air, a three-car garage, and proximity to downtown Melrose, it is a house of consequence, ready to be lived in fully.
