279 Clifton Street, Malden, MA - $647,500 Jaw Dropping Victorian in the heart of Malden’s desirable West End in a neighborhood surrounded by vintage properties. Extraordinary woodwork throughout starting in the foyer and fanning in every direction. Formal living room has outstanding glass paneled bookcases along two walls and triple-beamed ceilings. The fireplace in the living room boasts individually designed terra cotta tiles. Solarium off living room features arched window seat. The natural woodwork in the dining room is exquisite and a built-in buffet and hutch grace one wall. Absolutely amazing state-of-the-art kitchen (often over used term – not here!) with 48-inch Viking stove, granite counters and island (island wired for Nu tone juicer/blender/food processor, etc.) with custom birch, bird’s eye maple and mahogany cabinetry (sellers will leave kitchen table that matches.) Whimsical track lighting crowns the kitchen. Even the first floor bath has built-in cabinetry with a pull- out baby-changing table. The previous owner did most of the restoration and devoted 15 years to this painstaking process. The floors gleam and the natural woodwork continues right through the third floor. Among the many things that should be noted: extensive stained and leaded glass, almost all new thermal pained windows, originally built passive solar so that the front porch keeps summer light out in summer and light penetrates front of house in the winter, crystal chandelier in DR among many period lighting fixtures, 3-zone heat, rain sensor for sprinkler system, security system, outdoor lights on timers. This 11 room, up to 6 bedroom, 3 full bath property is a gem and awaits the buyer who has been searching for something extraordinarily special. Click Here to View Public Listing Sheet |
