About this property

Picture this: you turn onto a quiet, tree lined street, and at the bottom of the road a peaceful pond catches the late afternoon light. Halfway,158 Bay State Rd is waiting for you, a place that's all yours. Step through your own front door, with no shared hallways and no neighbors above or below, and the first thing you'll notice is the gleaming hardwood floors. They stretch from room to room, warm underfoot and full of character, the kind of detail that makes a house feel like a home from the moment you walk in. Mornings here start in the kitchen, where sunlight pours through the windows and fills the space with a bright, cheerful glow. It's the kind of kitchen where coffee tastes a little better, weekend pancakes become a tradition, and friends naturally gather while dinner's on the stove. The primary bedroom offers a comfortable, restful retreat at the end of the day. The second bedroom is a narrow, cozy space that can fit a twin or possibly a full mattress, but it truly shines as a home office, creative studio, or flex room. Picture a desk by the window for work from home days, a reading nook, or a spot for hobbies. Forced hot air heat keeps everything comfortable when New England winter rolls in. Out back, your own yard is ready for summer cookouts, a small garden, or a quiet evening under the trees. The landlord handles the landscaping, so you get all the enjoyment of a yard without spending your weekends mowing. Here's the best part: this single family home rents for the same price as a traditional apartment in a building. Instead of shared walls, crowded parking, and footsteps overhead, you get privacy, space, and a place to truly call home, all for apartment money with laundry too. And then there's the neighborhood, evening strolls down to the pond, the shade of mature trees overhead, and easy access to Melrose's charming downtown, local shops and restaurants, parks, and convenient commuter options into Boston. It's the best of both worlds, peaceful and connected. Home rentals like this rarely come along. Come see it for yourself and imagine your next chapter at 158 Bay State Rd. Tenant responsible for: heat, hot water, electric, water & sewer, cable/internet, and snow removal. Landscaping is included.
