About this home

Some homes have a story to tell, and this 1920s Colonial is full of the thoughtful details that make a house feel like home. Start your morning in the charming breakfast nook, lovingly built by family, where natural light pours in and there's always a reason to linger over coffee. The updated kitchen pairs timeless style with everyday function, featuring white shaker cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink. A thoughtfully designed mudroom with built-ins brings organization to the daily routine. The generously sized living room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, offers a welcoming place to gather, while the adjoining sunroom provides a bright and inviting space to unwind. Original wood floors celebrate the home's 1920s character, complemented by thoughtful updates, including a refreshed full bath. Owned solar panels offer the added advantage of energy efficiency and the potential for lower electricity costs. Outside, mature trees frame a beautifully maintained yard, where a stone patio and newer picket fence create an inviting setting for outdoor gatherings. A detached garage adds convenience and storage. With the trails of Middlesex Fells nearby and easy access to Route 93 and Boston, this home brings together classic New England charm and modern-day practicality.

About Upper

Highlands

Upper Highlands, located between Malden Center and the Middlesex Fells Reservation, is a residential and hillside Malden neighborhood with triple-decker streetscapes and broad, tree-lined blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Salem Street and Lebanon Street crossroads, where corner markets, takeout counters, and everyday storefronts set a steady, local rhythm. The Forestdale Cemetery grounds add a quiet, historic edge to the area’s slopes. Pine Banks Park frames the neighborhood with ballfields and walking loops, while nearby trailheads pull the landscape toward the Fells. Housing reads as early-20th-century wood-frame homes and multifamily buildings, with porches and small yards shaping the streetscape. Malden Center’s arts-and-dining scene sits downhill, anchored by community staples such as Faces Brewing Co., Idle Hands Craft Ales, and the Malden Public Library.
