Location
Flood zone & environment
- FEMA flood zone: X (moderate). Outside the 1% flood zone but inside the 0.2% (500-year) area. Flood insurance isn't required, but it's worth pricing. The 1% zone is about 5 ft away.
- 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 108 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.

Around Commercial St
Scored against every street in Braintree.
Condos vs single-family
Scores run 1–100; 50 is typical. Prices are placed among Braintree MLS PIN closed sales of the same year, so an older sale is judged against the prices of its own time. A past or asking price only: we don't estimate what any home is worth. Scores describe how the market behaves, not the home or its neighbors.
Zoning, taxes & the land
| Property tax, FY2025 | About $2,843 a year (assessed $284,900 × $9.98 per $1,000). An estimate: exemptions and abatements change the actual bill. |
| Elevation | About 22 ft above sea level, higher than 1% of Braintree homes. |
