About this home

Move right in to this lovingly maintained, tastefully updated 3 bed/1.5 bath cape on a peaceful cul-de-sac in Malden's desirable Forestdale neighborhood. Less than 1.5 miles to Oak Grove Station as well as the shops and fine dining of downtown Malden and Melrose, this sweet urban oasis offers the space of the suburbs with the conveniences of city living. Inside, original wood floors and classic mid-century fixtures are complemented by thoughtful improvements including newer appliances and a finished walk-out basement; outside, the spacious and private lot is enhanced by lush custom landscaping, a roomy new shed, and a pristine patio built for entertaining. Boasting 2 off-street parking spots, ample storage throughout, and updates including new roof (2015, with 50-year non-prorated warranty), new insulation (2017), new boiler (2018), and new hot water tank (2018, with a 10-year warranty), this Malden charmer makes home ownership a breeze. Don't miss it!
