Incredible investment opportunity in historic downtown Melrose! This is your chance to own and restore *Oakhurst*, a 3-story Victorian masterpiece built in 1885. Boasting 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 3,009 square feet of authentic craftsmanship, this home is a true testament to the architectural grandeur of its time. Situated on 1.24 acres, the property features solid hardwood flooring, 10' ceilings, and classic period details including a double fireplace, beadboard accents, clawfoot tub, and vintage light fixtures. Relax on the charming front porch swing or enjoy the 2nd-story balcony with peaceful views. The spacious layout offers oversized bedrooms, formal and informal dining rooms, and a large open kitchen. The 2014 metal roof addition provides additional living space, while the 40x40 RV-sized metal building with two bays and roll-up doors offers ample storage or workspace.
