Historic character defines Oak Grove/Pine Banks, where Melrose's southern neighborhood offers Boston accessibility without downtown prices. The district surrounds the 67-acre Pine Banks Park with its recreation facilities, while Orange Line access provides car-free commuting to downtown employment. Though some properties show their age with vintage quirks, the combination of architectural distinction, transit convenience, and significantly more reasonable rates than similar Boston neighborhoods creates compelling value for commuters seeking both character and practicality.
