Neighborhood

Cushing Square is a cozy and historic neighborhood in the western Boston suburb of Belmont. With its large houses and dense canopy of trees shading the sidewalks, Cushing Square gives off a distinctly suburban vibe, amplified by the abundance of large parks and golf courses surrounding the community. A small cluster of storefront businesses at the intersection of Trapelo Road and Common Street provides residents with a one-stop shopping and dining destination close to home, featuring everything from a hardware store to a yoga studio to a Greek diner and everything in between.

Burbank Elementary School and WL Chenery Middle School are both within easy walking distance of anywhere in the neighborhood, giving local students the option of walking to class. The neighborhood’s location offers prime access to both Harvard and Tufts, with all of Boston just minutes away.
