Oak St - Melrose MA

Custom Built-to-Suit Residence & Tailored Site Selection

Situated directly adjacent to Seaview Park and the expansive trail networks near Mount Hood Golf Course, the Oak Street Residence is a fully custom, build-to-suit project designed around the specific lifestyle of its owners. Having followed Szecon’s speculative work in Melrose, the buyers sought a home that could be crafted entirely around their distinct functional requirements. Through close consultation, Szecon helped identify an ideal lot capable of supporting their spatial vision, executing the project from initial land acquisition through finished construction.

The resulting home features a highly customized interior layout tailored to the family's passions and daily routines. The program includes multiple en-suite bedrooms, a dedicated art studio, a light-filled walk-out basement configured for a woodworking workshop, and bespoke architectural details—including a custom catwalk designed specifically for the family’s cats.
