What MassDEP has recorded
- RTN 3-0029967 — No Location Aid, activity and use limitation, status PSC, class PA, AUL recorded May 6, 2015 · MassDEP file
Within about 500 m (a third of a mile): 0 active tier-classified 21E sites and 2 sites with an Activity and Use Limitation. All MassDEP sites in Cambridge.
What this means
- Assessed 28% above the median single family residential in Cambridge ($1,790,750, 3,734 parcels).
- The last deed was recorded for a nominal sum: a transfer between family members, into a trust or a similar non-market sale. It says nothing about the market value.
- An Activity and Use Limitation is a deed restriction: it limits how the land may be used (often no residential use or no digging) and passes to every buyer.
- Built before 1978: the Massachusetts Lead Law applies when a child under six lives there; ask for any lead inspection or letter of compliance.
