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

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
