15 Desmond Road stands proudly in Malden’s Upper Highlands, a Dutch Colonial Revival with the quiet confidence of a home that’s seen the years & only grown more beautiful. Thoughtfully renovated, it balances classic charm with modern ease—an inviting kitchen with white cabinets, granite counters, & stainless steel flows effortlessly into a warm dining area, ready for both lively dinners & quiet mornings. Sunlight pours into the living room, & the enclosed three-season porch offers a cheerful, flexible space. Upstairs, five bedrooms await—ideal for restful nights, bustling mornings, creative pursuits or a future suite. A newer roof, furnace, & AC system provide peace of mind, while the private backyard reveals a rare gift: sweeping Boston skyline views, a daily reminder of the city’s energy from the comfort of your own retreat. Near Malden Center, Oak Grove, Fellsmere Park, & the Fells—here, city & serenity meet, & this is exactly where you belong.
