Why settle for a condo when you can have privacy, outdoor space and home that actually feels like yours? Set on a partially wooded half-acre and elevated from the road, this light filled single family feels quite secluded, yet it's just steps from public transportation into the city. Inside, the layout is efficient and open with plenty of natural light and ample storage throughout. A sliding door off the kitchen leads to a spacious side deck- ideal for hosting friends, working from home or just enjoying a quiet evening surrounded by trees. Whether you're a first time home buyer, or just ready for something more grounded than a high-rise, this home gives you freedom, function, and a place that fits your lifestyle. 502 Salem is in the heart of Maplewood. 1.0 Mile to Malden Center(T and Commuter Rail-accessible by bus), 0.2 miles to Northern Strand Community Trail, close to Boston, Logan, myriad restaurants and shopping.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
