Some homes just have personality — and 61 Myrtle Avenue has plenty of it. This charming turn-of-the-century Victorian offers architectural character, a flexible layout, and an expansive yard that is hard to find in Wakefield. Inside, period details blend nicely with many thoughtful recent updates. The main level features a comfortable living room, dining room, updated kitchen with new appliances, a bedroom, half bath, and a charming nook that works perfectly as a home office, reading space, or quiet retreat.
