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 across three levels, off-street parking and an expansive ~0.37-acre lot, the property presents a compelling opportunity for investors, owner-occupants and multigenerational families. The main-level unit 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 ~829 sq. ft. finished lower level, accessible both internally from the main-level unit and through its own exterior walkout, features a living/family room, bedroom, office/den, full bath and wet bar. The second-floor unit, with its own dedicated exterior entrance, offers 2 bedrooms, full bath and an open kitchen/living area. Beyond the existing two-family use, the substantial rear yard 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.
