A delightful Colonial in a lovely Forestdale neighborhood situated between two T Stations, downtown shops and restaurants of both Malden and Melrose, a bus line and only five miles to Boston! This home harmoniously blends the quality millwork of the past i.e. crown mouldings, natural woodwork and hardwood floors w/modern day updates such as granite counter tops and cherry cabinets in the kitchen and a new bath with pretty tile and built-in storage. A family room on the first floor is great for movie night but would also make a nice home office and the living and dining room are nearby. The three bedrooms on the second floor are generous size and there is another full bath. A private, multi level rear yard has space for a garden as well as a patio for entertaining...sit back and listen to the birds and relax at the end of the day. New heating system installed in 2015. Homes in this neighborhood sell quickly so do not delay!
