Executive Summary

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Warren Residential is pleased to present an exceptional opportunity to acquire 17 Monmouth St in Somerville. 17 Monmouth Street presents a rare opportunity for redevelopment or adaptive reuse in the heart of one of Greater Boston’s most dynamic urban neighborhoods. The property includes a 6,667 square foot structure formerly operated by the Somerville Housing Authority for residential use, situated on a generously sized 11,582 square foot lot.

Zoned NR (Neighborhood Residence), the site supports low-density residential development, including multi-family, and townhouse-style housing. Notably, the lot size may offer potential for subdivision into two conforming lots—providing a unique opportunity to unlock additional development value. The existing structure’s scale and institutional history may also support creative redevelopment scenarios with community or housing uses. Buyers should perform all their own due diligence as the sellers make no representations. 

Located in Somerville's vibrant Spring Hill Neighborhood, a short distance to Union Square and the Green Line Extension (GLX), the property offers excellent transit access and sits within a rapidly evolving urban corridor. The neighborhood is characterized by a mix of historic homes, new multifamily developments, and active public spaces, with continued growth driven by infrastructure improvements and major public/private investment.

With strong market fundamentals, zoning potential, and a strategic location in close proximity to Somerville’s innovation and transit hubs, 17 Monmouth Street represents a high-potential opportunity for developers or investors seeking to contribute to the City's next chapter of smart urban growth.

*Additional determinations would be necessary to ascertain the development capacity of the church site due to its zoning. The existing improvements appear to represent a pre-existing use with non-conformities. The parsonage lot is well-suited for residential development with ample frontage and lot area.
