11 Byron St. is a single-family gem with an extraordinary backyard oasis and prime Wakefield location. This turn-key home features a convenient floorplan and charming highlights such as hardwood floors, rich exposed brick and beautiful newel posts, alongside thoughtful updates like custom closet built-ins and recessed lighting. The first floor features a large living room, a convenient half bath, and a large updated kitchen with stone countertops, and a large island with seating and storage. Adjacent to the kitchen is a formal dining room with a large glass door that leads to an expansive rear deck overlooking a beautiful rear yard featuring a multi-level patio, mature trees that provide options of shade and sun, and thoughtful landscaping. Beyond the yard you have direct, unique access to a sprawling, open park right from your own backyard—an incredible extension of space beyond your property. A useful deep driveway comfortably holds four vehicles and leads to a versatile detached garage ideal for hobbyists, woodworkers, or storage. All of this while being less than a half-mile from the commuter rail, under a mile from picturesque Lake Quannapowitt and the Common District with local dining, cafes and boutique shopping, and offering quick access to major routes (I-93 and I-95). Move-in ready, character-rich, and set in a location that offers the best of suburban convenience and natural beauty.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 645 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,289 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 6,721 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.

Estimates — not financial advice

These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
