Offering nearly 2,000 sq ft of living space on a dead-end street, this Braintree split-entry combines a flexible interior with an outdoor setup made for enjoying the warmer months. Hardwood floors carry through the main living and dining areas, while the kitchen features an island, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking and recessed lighting. A slider extends the dining space outdoors, where a multi level deck creates multiple areas for dining, entertaining or relaxing. Three bedrooms and a full tiled bath complete the main level with pull down attic for extra storage. Downstairs, the finished walkout level adds valuable versatility with a generous family room featuring a second full bath and direct garage access. Outside, the fenced yard offers plenty of usable space along with a garden area and two storage sheds. An attached 2-car garage and expansive paved driveway add to the appeal. Close to Braintree Station, South Shore Plaza, Sunset Lake, Pond Meadow Park and major highway connections, this home brings together space and outdoor living in a desirable Braintree neighborhood. Plus the roof, furnace, water heater, ac and driveway are all less than 7 years old!

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 2,271 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 15,072 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
