What MassDEP has recorded
- RTN 3-0011505 — No Location Aid, activity and use limitation, status RAO, class A3, AUL recorded December 23, 1994 · MassDEP file
Within about 500 m (a third of a mile): 0 active tier-classified 21E sites and 1 site with an Activity and Use Limitation. All MassDEP sites in Gloucester.
What this means
- Assessed close to the median single family residential in Gloucester ($679,400, 6,519 parcels).
- 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.
