Broad Street Men's Sober House

About this Sober House

64 Broad Street is a men's sober living home in Lynn, Massachusetts, in Essex County. Chelsea's House operates the property and holds Level II certification for it through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing.

A Men's Sober House on Broad Street

Broad Street runs through one of Lynn's central residential blocks, close to downtown and to the city's MBTA commuter rail stop. Chelsea's House houses men here under the same shared-bedroom arrangement it uses across its Lynn properties, which keeps the weekly fee manageable while putting residents in regular contact with each other.

House Rules at Broad Street

The operator sets one schedule for every address it runs: a weekly house meeting, three outside recovery meetings, drug testing twice a week on a random basis, and a nightly curfew with no overnight guests. A resident who transfers between Chelsea's House houses does not have to relearn the rules.

Level II Certification

The Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing certifies Broad Street at Level II, requiring a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and rules before move-in, and a complaint process outside the house itself.

Six Houses in Lynn Alone

Broad Street is one of six Chelsea's House addresses in Lynn, more than the operator runs in East Boston, Chelsea and Malden combined. That density means a resident who needs a different set of housemates, or simply an open bed, has more options within one city than most sober living networks in Massachusetts offer.

Essex County Recovery Housing

Lynn is the largest city in Essex County and the hub of the county's recovery housing stock. A commuter rail line into Boston and a dense local bus network make Broad Street, like the rest of the operator's Lynn houses, reachable without a car.
