About this home
155 Clifton Street in Malden has a lodging house license to operate 17 rooms/apartments comprising 5 studios (with their own kitchen and baths) and 12 rooms with shared kitchen and baths (1 bath on each floor). These properties are rarely available and generate significant annual income for the smart investor operator. FYI - The seller is willing to stay and show the new owner how to operate it. Investor Alert - this property recently received a top to bottom "gut" renovation which allowed for new insulation, new heat and electric, new windows and hardwood floors, new sprinkler and fire systems. The kitchens and baths have quartz counter-tops and new appliances. The building has high end cameras on each floor. Laundry in the building. Significant off street parking and a two car garage. Located in a quiet residential neighborhood in the West End area of Malden within within walking distance to two Orange Line T stations.
