Hundreds of shopping and dining options on the south side of Burlington
Woods Corner was once home to pig farms and other farmland, and even was used as a hideout for patriots leading up to the Revolutionary War. But as Burlington has grown throughout the 20th century, Woods Corner has developed into the town’s largely commercial strip with hundreds of businesses, shops, restaurants and offices. Small subdivisions with single-family homes and apartment buildings are tucked behind the neighborhood’s commercial landscape, 18 miles north of Boston. “There’s a lot of things to do right in town. That major quadrant of commercial and retail is a destination,” says Beverlee Vidoli, Burlington resident since 1980 and broker/owner at RE/MAX Realty Experts.
Woods Corner offers a suburb lifestyle with many accessible stores and dining options.

Subdivisions wedged between a commercial strip and Mary Cummings Park
Homes and apartments intermingle with Woods Corner’s largely industrial and commercial landscape. Most of the neighborhood’s single-family homes border Mary Cummings Park, east of Middlesex Turnpike. Bi-levels and ranches built in the mid-20th century dot wide, suburban streets lined with sidewalks. The area also has some homes built within the last 10 years. “There are a lot of teardowns happening. Developers will build something bigger and sell the home for $1.7 million-plus,” Vidoli says. “But they are magazine-quality homes.” Houses have sold for between $750,000 and $1.8 million in the neighborhood.
Split level homes are common among the homes in Woods Corner.

Hiking at Mary Cummings Park and events at Simonds Park
Mary Cummings Park has over 200 acres of outdoor recreational space in the neighborhood and is bordered by 100 additional acres of conservation land. Once used as farmland, Mary Cummings Park has a playground and trails through idyllic fields of flowers and forest. About 2 miles north, Simonds Park is in the center of town and has a wading pool, playground, basketball and tennis courts, and a skatepark, among other facilities. The park is also home to Burlington’s Town Common. The common hosts town events such as an annual tree lighting with visits from Santa in December and Celebrate Burlington in August. Celebrate Burlington brings in thousands of people each year for a carnival, live music and fireworks.

Offices make up much of the space in Woods Corner. Major companies like Raytheon and Microsoft have branches in Burlington. “Burlington is on a high-tech stretch of Route 128. A lot of people work between Interstate 495 and Boston,” Vidoli Says. The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority serves lines to nearby towns like Alewife and further to Boston and Cambridge. The neighboring town of Woburn also has a commuter rail line into Boston. For those who prefer to drive, Interstates 93 and 95 connect travelers the 18 miles south into the city.
