About This Home

As of May 2025

Timeless elegance meets modern innovation in the stunning 1897 E.O. Holmes House. Minutes to Oak Grove T, Malden Center, and Middlesex Fells trails, this architectural treasure delivers both character and convenience. Three show-stopping entertainment spaces flow perfectly for gatherings, each flaunting period details like coffered ceilings, original fireplaces, and clever window-seat storage. The eat-in kitchen (with new appliances, breakfast nook, and Dutch door) opens to a private patio beneath mature trees. Four sun-drenched bedrooms and a custom-built library provide space for everyone, while modern upgrades ensure comfort: 95% efficient two-zone heating, brand new roof, upgraded electrical, and refreshed insulation. The peaceful 8,600 SF lot features a treehouse that'll appeal to your adventuresome spirit. Practical perks include second-floor laundry, walk-out basement, and four parking spaces (2 garage, 2 permitted). Classic style meets contemporary living at this West End gem!
