Edgeworth’s prime location just miles north of Boston
Situated between Malden and Medford, Edgeworth is a suburb known for its central locale and accessibility to exciting amenities. “The vast majority of people choose Edgeworth for its proximity to the Malden Center Orange Line and walkability to the downtown area, which has just undergone a huge transformation in the last few years,” says Realtor Kristin Gennetti at Century 21 North East, who has over 18 years of experience selling in Greater Boston. “The atmosphere is really social and diverse, as well. It’s always been tight knit.” With all of the restaurants, public transit and downtown happenings a short walk away, residents here don’t feel like they need a car, despite being 5 miles out of Boston. For those looking for a suburban feel without sacrificing accessibility to urban amenities, Edgeworth provides a blend of both.
Mobile workouts and Edgeworth parks
There are a few major outdoor spaces for recreation and relaxation, including Devir Park, which Gennetti mentions was just redone. Devir has soccer and baseball fields, a playground and tennis and basketball courts. MacDonald Stadium on Pearl Street is one of the area’s most utilized public spaces. It features a track for running and walking, as well as an artificial turf field that is often used for youth sports and special events. Right next door to the stadium, there is a Fitness Court at Callahan Park, which is a free area with equipment and a QR code that grants access to fitness challenges and guided training videos. The Fitness Court is a national fitness campaign partnered with healthcare providers, who have a goal to provide a free outdoor gym within a 10-minute bike ride of every American.
The outdoor fitness area at Callahan Park is a great option on sunny days in Edgeworth.
MacDonald Stadium in Edgeworth has a full sized track and field to work out on.

Balaji Indian Groceries is another small specialty store with a variety of food and spices, and Wegmans and Target are also within 2 miles. Gennetti mentions that another draw to Edgeworth is its 2-mile proximity to Assembly Row in Summerville, an outlet mall with brands from Saks Off 5th and Coach to Reebok and Nike.

Vinyl-sided colonials dominate Edgeworth market
Single- and multifamily colonials, condos and apartments make up most of Edgeworth’s housing options. Properties were built throughout the 20th century, with a few late 19th century builds, and most have vinyl siding. Some homes have modest front yards, lined by sidewalks and tree boxes. Both houses and smaller units often fall between $550,000 and $750,000, and monthly rent for apartments tends to start around $2,000 for two bedrooms. With the recent transformation of Malden’s downtown area, vibrant apartments have been erected along Pleasant Street and are growing in popularity. While some homes have garages or private parking space, street parking can be necessary, and at times, difficult to find.
Spacious porches and back yards are a common trait of homes within Edgeworth.
