Newly repositioned at $1,499,000, 18 Rosegate Rd offers exceptional value in Needham Heights. This move-in ready 2005 Colonial offers nearly 3,000 sq ft of living space, a flexible floor plan and a location that is hard to beat. Recent improvements include refinished hardwood floors throughout the first floor, newly installed hardwood upstairs, and new granite in the kitchen and bathrooms. The main level features a fireplaced living room, formal dining room, family room and bright eat-in kitchen with abundant cabinetry, pantry and direct access to the flat, fenced yard and patio. The layout also offers flexibility for a first-floor bedroom if desired. Upstairs is a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath, two additional bedrooms and a dedicated office. The finished walk-up attic adds another bedroom and bonus room, with plumbing and electric already roughed for a future bath. A high-ceilinged basement offers even more potential. Set on a private way and walkable to schools, with Needham Heights shops, restaurants, commuter rail and Route 95/128 all close by. A rare combination of space, condition, location and value at this new price point.
ADU Potential
Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 2,915 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 4,792 sq ft.
Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.
Estimates — not financial advice
These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
