A quiet neighborhood just north of downtown Woburn

Less than 2 miles from downtown lies North Woburn, a quiet residential neighborhood close to commuting options and Woburn entertainment. The winding streets have a large number of homes including residences built as early as the 1700s and townhouses built in 2023. These homes are just a short walk away from Main Street, which has many local schools, parks and shopping options along its sides. Other than Main Street and the surrounding interstates, the neighborhood is a very quiet area with both commuter rail and bus options for those who do not want to drive into downtown Woburn or Boston. “A lot of people who grew up in North Woburn settle there just because it’s very family-oriented,” says local broker Patricia Marsh of Realty Executives Marsh & Associates.

Symmetrical Woburn homes

When driving around the streets of North Woburn, residents can notice that many of the houses in the area have a symmetrical design. Most are Colonial Revival styles with some saltbox homes scattered around the neighborhood. Many homes are even more historic than they look and were built in the 1920s or earlier. These older homes sit right alongside townhouses and condos that were constructed in the last few years, as early as 2023. “There’s really not any rundown areas of Woburn,” Marsh says. Properties line winding streets dotted with mature maple and oak trees, and prices commonly range from around $500,000 to just over $1 million.

Ferullo Field fun

Fun seekers do not have to go far in this quiet neighborhood to reach Ferullo Field. Residents can take the kids to the playground and the pool or spark up a game of tennis or basketball with a friend. Ferullo Field features a dog park as well, which includes separate areas for large and small dogs.

Restaurants and bars just off of Main Street

Hungry residents are just a short drive from both takeout and sit-down restaurants like Teresa's Ristorante Bar & Pizzeria, popular for its authentic Italian-style dishes served at lunch and dinner. Date night and after-work get-togethers are also easy, with the neighborhood being home to The Baldwin Bar, a popular event spot for enjoying hand-crafted cocktails with friends. Daily necessities can be grabbed at the local Stop & Shop or CVS up the road. The neighborhood is also just across the street from Showcase Cinema de Lux Woburn for fans seeking the next summer blockbuster.

Main Street and commuter access

Main Street is the largest street in the neighborhood, quickly connecting homes to shopping, dining and other larger roads in the area. “It’s convenient to get to the highway as well,” Marsh says, with Main Street connecting to both Interstates 95 and 93. Commuters can quickly hop on I-93 by bus or car to access Boston from Woburn. For commuters not wanting to hop on the interstate, the Mishawum and Anderson/Woburn commuter rail stations are a short walk or drive away. For trips outside of the state, Logan International Airport is 16 miles south, and Winchester Hospital Urgent Care – Woburn is at the neighborhood’s southern end.

Downtown Woburn events

With the neighborhood being just a short drive from downtown Woburn, residents are just a hop and a skip away from tons of events, including a massive Halloween Parade down Main Street that is full of themed floats and costumes. The event draws tens of thousands of people each year and is a great way to start the spooky season. Locals can also head to the library’s lawn for Juneteenth Woburn, an event full of food trucks and artists alongside public speakers and musical performances. Kids can also head inside the library for crafts throughout the whole day.
