Flood zone & environment

- Public sewer area. Inside the Braintree Water & Sewer service area, so no Title 5 septic inspection to sell.
- Area of Critical Environmental Concern. In the Cranberry Brook Watershed ACEC, which brings extra environmental review.
- Near Town Forest. Protected or recreational land about 66 ft away.
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.

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.
