Property Description

Welcome to 62 Cottage Street, a timeless Greek Revival home in one of Melrose's most cherished neighborhoods. Built in 1848 near the original Boston & Maine Railroad, the home continues to offer remarkable convenience today—just moments from the bus, commuter rail, and subway. Set on a generous, level corner lot, this home blends historic character with comfortable everyday living. Natural light fills the living and dining rooms, highlighting high ceilings, classic moldings, and hardwood floors that flow seamlessly into the kitchen. The first-floor family room opens to a patio and fenced yard with mature plantings and a custom shed—an inviting setting for gardening, entertaining, or quiet afternoons outdoors. Upstairs, skylights brighten three spacious bedrooms, while a versatile loft offers flexible space for a home office, reading nook, or creative studio. Ideally located near downtown shops and restaurants, offering easy highway access and close to the Middlesex Fells Reservation.
