Overview

This offering features an exceptional two-parcel development assemblage situated on the Blue Hill Avenue corridor in Dorchester. The parcels are offered together as a unified, shovel-ready site. Zoned S3 (Active Main Street) under Boston's Squares + Streets framework, the site permits multifamily residential development as-of-right under Article 26, as confirmed in writing by the City of Boston Planning Department. This zoning allows for structures up to 7 stories or 85 feet in height, with floor plates reaching up to 20,000 square feet. The location benefits from its proximity to Boston Police District B-3, offering a public safety amenity for future residents. The Talbot Avenue Fairmount Line commuter rail station is approximately 0.7 miles away, providing direct service to South Station. Additionally, the Shawmut and Ashmont Red Line stations are located approximately 1.1 and 1.5 miles away, respectively, with Ashmont serving as a major transit hub connecting the Red Line and Mattapan Trolley. Multiple MBTA bus routes serve the area.
