Description

Prepare to fall in love with this charming 19th-century Carriage House on the Merrihew Manor estate, a rare jewel in the Melville Park neighborhood. This historic home, reimagined with modern touches, retains its Queen Anne charm with original period details like beamed ceilings, French doors, wide plank wood floors and a cupola with a weathervane. Spread over two levels, featuring an open living space with a vaulted-ceiling living room, gas fireplace, spacious kitchen with counter seating and a large deck. The home boasts a spacious bedroom, two full bathrooms and a versatile first-floor space for a home office, den or potential extra bedroom. A unique bonus area opens to the yard via stable doors – perfect for a studio, workshop, or creative expansion. The basement offers laundry, storage and potential for further development. Including a high-efficiency boiler, new mini-split systems and two deeded parking spaces. Only a few blocks from the Red Line, this is city living at its best!
