Cape Cods and Colonial Revivals in Cummingsville
Housing in Cummingsville mainly consists of single-family homes constructed during the mid-to-late 1900s. A blend of Garrison-style colonials, Cape Cods and split-levels lines the maze-like residential streets of the community. There are also a few 21st-century Colonial Revival-style and new traditional-style houses. Single-family prices generally fall somewhere between $550,000 and $1.1 million. “Woburn real estate is hot,” says Patricia Marsh, broker and Realtor with Realty Executives Marsh & Associates and a Woburn resident since 1983. “We have very low taxes, and the same home that would cost $1 million in Woburn would go for $3 million in Winchester.” There are also a few townhouse developments, most of which were built prior to 1980. Listings for these often range between $600,000 and $850,000.

Soccer fields and trails at Whispering Hill Park
In Cummingsville, residential streets are interspersed with pocket parks and larger community parks, as well as indoor recreation facilities. The largest tract is Whispering Hill Park, a 75-acre swath of protected land whose features include a network of trails and several sports fields. “Woburn is an active community,” Marsh says. “Soccer is big, and so is lacrosse.” At Rag Rock Hill Park, a short hike to the peak offers a prime spot for watching sunsets. Smaller green spaces, such as Battle Road Woodland Area, have forested paths for dog walking or birding. The North Suburban YMCA on Lexington Street has an indoor pool and basketball court, as well as a full range of fitness equipment. The neighborhood’s O'Brien Ice Rink is open year-round for figure skaters to hone their skills, and in winter months, hockey teams from Burlington, Woburn and Medford compete there.

Cummingsville offers commuter options and nearby employment opportunities

Two Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority commuter rail stations are within a 4-mile drive of the area: one in Mishawum and the other in Winchester Center. Though proximity to Boston allows Cummingsville to serve as a bedroom community, not all residents commute into the city for work. Nearby employers include the Lahey Hospital & Medical Center in Burlington, located about 4 miles from the neighborhood. It recently achieved recognition as a Magnet® hospital. Marsh says that there are several office parks and lab spaces in Woburn which offer additional employment opportunities.
