Questions & answers
How many Braintree houses have a finished basement?
166 of 432 single-family sales over the last 24 months (38%) listed a finished or partially finished basement. They sold at a median of $826,250, against $700,000 for the rest.
Does a finished basement raise the price in Braintree?
About 1% less on a like-for-like basis. We compared median prices within size bands (under 1,400 sq ft, 1,400–1,999 sq ft, 2,000–2,799 sq ft, 2,800+ sq ft) where each side had at least 10 sales. The plain medians differ by 18%, but houses with a finished or partly finished basement were also larger (a median 2,228 sq ft against 1,596), and size explains much of that gap.
Does a finished basement count as living area?
Usually not in the MLS: most Braintree listings report above-grade living area and describe basement space separately. That is why this page compares houses of the same above-grade size.
