Tucked into a quiet, residential side street in Ashmont Hill moments from the Ashmont T station is an adorable Victorian with sweet vintage touches and square footage to spare.
Located at 51 Mellen Street, the circa-1910 single family is much larger than you’d think — boasting just under 3,000 square feet plus a finished basement. Easygoing landscaping, a fenced-in yard with a patio, and off-street parking complete a family residence that checks off all the boxes.
Both well maintained and renovated where upgrades were needed, the home’s unique period character is mostly — and thankfully — undisturbed. You get warm hardwood floors, French doors, bay windows, built-ins, and a welcoming foyer with its intricately detailed staircase.
Open up the French doors and the home’s wide doorways and easy flow make it ideal for entertaining. Guests can mill about in the living and sitting room before heading to the formal dining area Here, a decorative fireplace with a distinctive carved mantle adds whimsy. Meanwhile, the semi-open kitchen enjoys significant updates via an island with a breakfast bar and custom cabinetry.
Sleeping quarters on the second and third level include five bedrooms. A bank of custom closets, en-suite bath, and a sitting room make the primary suite a total standout.
Open house hours are Saturday and Sunday, June 24 and 25, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
On the market for $1,050,000, the sale of the home is represented by Krystyn Elek of Unlimited Sotheby’s International Realty, 843-209-5044.
