1927

Welcome to 10 Governor Road, where 1927 character, wooded privacy and thoughtful updates come together on a quiet cul-de-sac. Sun-drenched living and dining spaces overlook a dappled pollinator garden alive with wildlife. Refinished hardwood floors add warmth, while the renovated kitchen blends style and function. A charming office with French doors overlooks neighborhood green space, a mudroom adds convenience, and three bedrooms and a renovated full bath complete the living space. Since 2023, significant improvements include a new roof, heat pumps, 200-amp electrical service, plumbing and water-pressure upgrades, and stainless steel appliances. Outside, new fencing, established fruit trees and berry bushes, and a pea-stone patio with firepit create a backyard oasis. Enjoy easy access to the Minuteman Bikeway, shops, restaurants, Arlington Reservoir, Great Meadows, parks, MBTA and Route 2. Showings begin Thursday. Offers due Tuesday, 9/29 at 10am. Home is where hearts gather and dreams take root!

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 736 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,472 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 3,785 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.

Estimates — not financial advice

These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
