Description

Opportunity awaits at 31 Walnut Street—an older, character-filled home set on an expansive 12,000+ sq ft lot in Arlington’s desirable R2 zoning district. Nestled on a quiet street, this property offers endless possibilities for renovation, expansion, or redevelopment. The existing home features traditional details and vintage charm, but systems and finishes are dated and ready for a visionary refresh. With its generous lot size, there’s potential to reimagine the space, add an accessory dwelling unit, or explore multi-family options (buyers to do their own due diligence). Enjoy a prime Brackett school location near Mass. Ave., public transportation, and major commuter routes. Whether you're looking to build new or breathe new life into an existing structure, this is a rare chance to invest in one of Arlington’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Close proximity to the Minuteman Bikeway, Arlington High, shops and eclectic restaurants. Oh, imagine the possibilities! Offers due 7/15 at 10a
