Hello Melrose/Wakefield Neighbors!
I’d like to introduce you to my newest listing coming to market this week, it’s the cutest little home at 27 Gooch Street. Conveniently located between Melrose’s quaint downtown and the Melrose Common, this home checks so many boxes!
Built in the early 1900’s, the home maintains so many of the historic details that we all love to see: original hardwood floors, paneled ceilings, built-in china cabinet, stained glass window, wainscoting and decorative molding and ornamental woodwork inside and out. The pride of ownership is clear, the current owner has taken the steps to keep and restore what is old and functional and bring in modern conveniences. There are three zones of mini-splits for heat/cooling, solar panels on the roof which bring your electrical bill to $79/month (which is the cost to continue the lease with the solar company), a modern new bathroom in the primary suite, updated trex and vinyl decking, and so much more.
This home has a large open floor first floor layout for the living/family area (or traditional dining), with sliders that lead to the backyard. The eat in kitchen has been updated with a timeless aesthetic: white shaker cabinetry, black soapstone counters, a subway backsplash and new stainless appliances. Upstairs you’ll find three large bedrooms on the second floor with two full baths. Tucked away on the 3rd floor is the 4th bedroom which is currently being used as a home office. Just across the hall is unfinished attic space which provides ample storage or the opportunity to finish and use as a bonus room. You’ll find a workbench, laundry and additional storage in the basement which has direct access to the driveway with parking for 2 cars. There are so many updates to this home and so many of the large expenses have already been taken care of for you. You can learn more about the property, view the virtual tour and floor plans at 27Gooch.com
What does the seller love about this space and her neighborhood? The proximity to the cutest downtown that has “everything you could possibly need!” A few of her must favorite spots include, Rising Eagle for dinner, Buckalews for a gift or special treat, numerous coffee and breakfast spots including Cafe Nero and Colette Bakery, Beacon Hill Wine & Gourmet for a great selection of wine and specialty cheeses to pair it with.
This seller has called Gooch Street home for many years and hopes the new owners will enjoy morning coffees in the sun on the back deck, talks with neighbors out strolling and riding their bikes, the proximity to the Melrose Common for play dates, and the general ease of getting around town: the bus to Oak Grove can be picked up right down the street.
