Close to everything Burlington has to offer, without feeling like you’re living in the middle of it. Restaurants, shopping, businesses, and parks are all nearby, while home still gives you room to settle in and enjoy some separation from the activity around you. Upstairs, the open living and dining areas connect to an updated kitchen, with three bedrooms and a full bath completing the main level. A newer deck overlooks the roughly 10,000 sq. ft. lot, giving you room for dinner outside, weekends with friends, or simply some time in the yard. Downstairs has a more casual feel, with a large family room that walks directly out to the updated patio and the backyard. A half bath, finished laundry room that can double as a workout area, and direct access to the one-car garage make the lower level useful well beyond extra living area. The home has also seen meaningful improvements over the years, including the remodeled kitchen, newer deck, HVAC and central air, insulation, repaved driveway, and recently finished laundry room. Taken together, the layout, outdoor areas, garage, and updates make this a home that feels practical without being ordinary, with enough room to spread out inside and out and enjoy it from the start.

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: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,927 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 10,001 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
