About this home

Rarely does a property in Malden combine this much living space, land and flexibility. Offering ~2,505 sq. ft. of finished living space, 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths across three levels, the property provides exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, working from home and changing needs. Set on an expansive ~0.37-acre lot, the main level features 2 bedrooms, an open kitchen/living area, full bath and sun room off the kitchen, with direct access to the rear deck and expansive backyard. The internally connected ~829 sq. ft. finished lower level adds a living/family room, bedroom, office/den, full bath, wet bar and exterior walkout. The second floor, with its own dedicated exterior entrance, provides 2 additional bedrooms, a full bath and open kitchen/living area. Currently zoned and configured as a two-family property, it also offers the valuable option of rental income. The substantial rear yard further distinguishes the property and may offer compelling potential for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) under current state and local regulations. Convenient to MBTA bus service and area amenities. Buyers and/or buyer's agents to perform all due diligence, including verification of ADU eligibility, requirements and approvals.
