Single- and multi-family housing in West Revere
Though the Boston area is known for historic homes, West Revere’s housing mainly consists of residences built from 1950 onward. Those looking for a single-family home will find an abundance of mid-1900s options, including split-levels and Cape Cod styles. These often sell between $500,000 and $900,000. Though single-family homes are common, “many things are being turned into multi-families or townhouses because that’s where the money is,” Charido says. Some older single-family homes have been converted into condos, while others have been swapped out for newly built multi-family dwellings. Listings for condos range between the mid-$300,000s and the mid-$700,000s; townhouses often start closer to $500,000 and also top out in the mid-$700,000s.Enjoying school sports fields and walks on Revere Beach
Even with West Revere’s dense residential makeup, there is still a solid amount of outdoor recreational space. DiSalvo Park, for instance, includes about a 2-mile walking path, plus basketball courts and an expansive playground area. Dogs have a place to run and obstacles to explore at the Paws & Play Dog Park. Charido says that Susan B. Anthony Middle School’s baseball field was just updated and that community members use the space during non-school hours. In addition, Harry Della Russo Stadium has a track around it that residents can use for daily walks or runs. Nearby Revere Beach is another popular spot for walks, and for a bike ride, locals can take the Northern Strand Community Trail, a 9.9-mile bike path that passes to the west of the neighborhood.The Paul Revere Innovation School is on the cutting edge of new educational methods
Three different elementary schools serve West Revere: Abraham Lincoln Elementary School, Paul Revere Innovation School and A.C. Whelan Elementary School. They all earn a C-plus rating on Niche. The Paul Revere Innovation School opened in 2010 and was the first innovation institution in the state. The school serves as a testing ground for new educational methods. One concept that was incubated at Paul Revere was Open Circle, a curriculum that focuses on students’ social and emotional needs. Once students reach the sixth grade, their school placement is determined by a lottery system — one option is C-rated Susan B. Anthony Middle School. Students at Anthony may participate in the drama department; past productions include a musical adaptation of “Finding Nemo.” Students may continue their learning at Revere High School, which rates a B on Niche and also offers drama as well as the Army JROTC Program.Revere's International Sand Sculpting Contest draws a crowd
In summer months, Revere residents can enjoy weekly movies on the beach, which take place on Thursday nights. “There’s an ice cream place by the beach — everyone grabs an ice cream and goes down to watch the movie,” Charido says. In December, there’s a tree-lighting ceremony at Revere City Hall, during which Santa rides into town on a firetruck. The International Sand Sculpting Contest takes over Revere Beach in mid-July. “It’s a massive event — I avoid the area around that time since it gets so crowded, but I walk by after it ends to see the sculptures,” Charido says. “They’re very impressive. You’ll have no idea how they can make them out of sand.”The Wonderland Station allows for a quick trip downtown
One of the essential characteristics of West Revere is its proximity to Boston. Massachusetts Route 1A and U.S. Route 1 provide two quick routes to downtown, about 6 miles away. Boston Logan International Airport is also less than a 4-mile drive from many homes in the community. Multiple Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority commuter rail stations border West Revere. To the east, on the blue line, the closest is the Wonderland Station. Though West Revere’s location allows for an easy commute into Boston, a new Amazon distribution center is set to bring more jobs within the neighborhood.Evenings at Volare and for a treat at the beach, Kelly's Roast Beef
West Revere residents can choose from three different grocery chains when it’s time to stock up. “It’s a battle of the supermarkets — people seem to like Market Basket the best,” Charido says. It’s located in the Northgate Shopping Center, a retail hub with stores such as Petco and Burlington. Along Broadway are locally owned restaurants, including the long-standing DeMaino’s and Volare, a newer dining spot. “Volare is very popular among locals,” Charido says. “It has a good atmosphere in the evenings and consistent quality.” When residents go to the beach, they stop at Kelly’s Roast Beef. “It’s a landmark,” Charido says. “The whole North Shore is obsessed with roast beef sandwiches. There are Facebook groups with around 50,000 people who rate the roast beef at different restaurants.”Staying aware of potential concerns
Some homes in West Revere fall in flood-prone areas, particularly those closest to Revere Beach and Mill Creek. Living near the city of Boston may result in high levels of noise as well as periodic air quality concerns.
