Flood zone & environment

  • FEMA flood zone: X (minimal). Outside the mapped flood zones, but the 1% flood zone is about 149 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.
  • Coastal flooding by 2050. The state's coastal flood model projects about a 70% annual chance of flooding here by 2050. That's a future projection, separate from today's FEMA 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.

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.
