About 2225 Melrose Street
***RARE FIND HIGHLAND ADDN*** Nestled in one of Abilene's most desirable neighborhoods—where homes like this rarely hit the market—this 1947 cottage style charmer is full of timeless character and curb appeal. Set on a peaceful, quiet street lined with large mature trees, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers original hardwood floors, a spacious floorplan that feels much larger than its square footage reflects, and an abundance of natural light throughout. Enjoy the convenience of a detached 1-car detached garage that also makes a great workshop space, she-shed or man cave. The nicely paved oversized driveway allows for ample parking space. The large, fenced backyard, with alley access, provides endless possibilities for outdoor living, entertaining, or future expansion. This one is a true hidden gem with warmth, character, and location—don’t miss this rare opportunity!!
