For 45 years, an architect has lived in, loved, and elevated "Treetops"—now it's your turn. Perched atop ledge on nearly half an acre with Boston skyline views, this is the house everyone in Malden has been curious about, and for good reason. Originally a regal single-family estate, it was thoughtfully converted into a two-family without sacrificing elegance or scale. Every improvement was intentional. Every detail considered. The result? A property that shows true pride of ownership at every turn. 4,153 sf | 7 bedrooms | 4 full baths | Screened-in back porch | Second-floor deck with sweeping city views. Location speaks for itself: 0.3 mi to Oak Grove MBTA (Orange Line & Commuter Rail), 0.4 mi to Pinnacle Rock Trailhead in the Middlesex Fells, 0.7 mi to Malden Center (Gaming District, Faces Brewing, Thaiger Den, and more). This isn't just any multifamily. This is Treetops.
