Welcome to "Melody Manor" an exceptional and versatile property on just under 3 private acres. This special estate, that includes a legal 2-bedroom cottage and oversized 3-car garage, was once home to legendary rock and roll pioneer Bill Haley, best known for his iconic hit "Rock Around the Clock!" The primary residence is a spacious 4-bedroom, 3 bath ranch home providing comfort, convenience and ease of living. Enter into the living room where you'll instantly be drawn to the oversized picture window and eye-catching fireplace. Continue into the kitchen, the heart of the home, with updated white shaker cabinets, extensive storage and an oversized island with butcher block countertop. Adjoining the kitchen is the family room that features a stylish accent wall and adjacent home office. The primary bedroom includes a vaulted ceiling and abutting handicapped accessible bath. Rounding out the main level are three additional spacious bedrooms, hall bath, laundry room and convenient mud room. Downstairs, the finished basement has been transformed into a flex space complete with custom built-ins and full bath. Continue outside to the beautifully designed backyard where the covered porch and paver patio create an ideal setting for dining and entertaining. On the far side of the property is a detached 2-bedroom guest cottage, tailor-made for extended family, guests or potential rental opportunities. Another standout feature is the oversized 3-car detached garage with professional grade tool storage and organization system, an enclosed workshop on one end, enclosed storage space on the other and expansive loft space above. The versatile design offers endless possibilities for car enthusiasts, collectors, tradespeople or anyone seeking additional room to create and customize. With more than ample parking and expansive fenced-in grounds, "Melody Manor" provides room for vehicles, equipment and gatherings without sacrificing the beauty and tranquility of the property.
