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.
