About This Home

Meet 148 Cherry Street—your new favorite spot in Malden’s vibrant Forestdale neighborhood. This charming side-entrance colonial is bursting with surprises. The family room? Absolutely epic. Vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and giant windows that bring in all the good light—definitely hard to find around here. Updated bathrooms, walk-in closet in the primary bedroom and a sleek eat-in kitchen mean modern comforts meet timeless style. The semi-finished basement adds extra flex for whatever you need—home gym, game room, you name it. Outside, the fenced backyard with a durable composite deck is prime for chill evenings or summer hangouts. Plus, with easy access to Oak Grove T Station, commuting anywhere just got easier. This isn’t just a house—it’s a chance to live in a buzzy, connected community with everything you need - in the 'New Brooklyn', Malden, MA! Sellers prefer a quick closing w/ a rent back if possible.
