Flood zone & environment
- FEMA flood zone: X (minimal). Not in a mapped flood zone, so a lender won't require flood insurance.
- Hurricane storm surge: Category 2+. State (MEMA) models show this area could flood in a Category 2 or stronger hurricane. That's separate from the FEMA zone and doesn't by itself require flood insurance.
- Mapped open water about 395 ft away. Outside the 100-ft wetland buffer zone.
- Public sewer area. Inside the Braintree Water & Sewer service area, so no Title 5 septic inspection to sell.
Mapped at the parcel's center point from FEMA's flood maps, MassDEP, NHESP and MEMA (via MassGIS). Not a survey or a flood determination: confirm with FEMA's map service or a lender before you rely on it.
