Welcome to 40–42 Swan Street! — a beautifully maintained two-family in Malden's desirable Maplewood neighborhood, and a rare opportunity for owner-occupants, investors, and multi-generational buyers alike. Each of the two units offers 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, a spacious living room, separate dining room, and a bonus room in the attic (upper unit) — giving you flexibility for a home office, playroom, or guest space. Both kitchens feature stainless steel appliances, dishwashers, soft-close cabinets and drawers, and under-cabinet lighting. Hardwood floors, high ceilings, and abundant natural light run throughout. Originally renovated at purchase with new electric, plumbing, kitchens, baths, and hardwood floors, the property has seen continued interior improvements since 2021. The shared basement offers laundry and ample storage, and the private backyard is yours to enjoy. Each unit comes with 3 dedicated off-street parking spots on a paved asphalt and gravel driveway — six spots total, a real rarity in this market. Sitting on an 8,276 sq ft lot (notably larger than the neighborhood average of ~6,100 sq ft), the home is set on a quiet street within easy reach of the MBTA Bus Line (411/430) to the Malden Center Orange Line, downtown Malden, schools, and parks. The lower unit is offered fully furnished with a tasteful, professionally curated package — a true turnkey opportunity. Incoming owners have flexibility: lease it as a premium furnished long-term rental (a strong fit for relocating professionals, traveling medical staff, corporate housing, and academic visitors who consistently pay above-market rents for move-in-ready furnished units). Either unit would also suit graduate students, young professionals, or families seeking a quiet place to call home. *The Malden area doesn't allow for short-term rentals, but mid-term rentals are permissible, here. * Mechanicals & Utilities: Heat: Oil-fired hydronic system (hot water circulated through in-wall baseboard elements) Hot water: Electric water heater Cooling: Window or portable AC units Electric: Separately metered (National Grid) Water/Sewer: Municipal Internet: Verizon available Average Monthly Operating Costs: Heating oil (Cubby Oil, full-tank fills): ~$625 per fill, October–March Electric (Unit 2, National Grid): ~$225/month Trash: $77/year per bin (City Hall) + $2/bag overflow (blue bags available at CVS) Possession available July 15, 2026 (some flexibility for the right offer).
