Not planning on any kids.

30-45 min to airport would work perfectly. We sometimes travel for work and do a good bit of traveling for pleasure but not anything too frequent.

30 minutes to Logan can make it tight on budget and land.

If you can get your head around more like an hour - hour and 15 minutes? It really will open things up for you.

That's a short commute to Boston and the houses will be priced accordingly.

I live within Boston city limits and 12 miles from Logan. It has only ever taken me 30-45 minutes to get to the airport if I'm going in at 3:30am for a 5am flight.

Sharon is the type of town you're looking for on that budget in that driving range (assuming favorable traffic conditions of course) to the airport

Pretty viable e.g.

Historic home within walking distance to several restaurants in the town center, the town library, and the commuter rail to Boston/Providence RI. (No financial affiliation)

One of the restaurants in the town center is a vegan restaurant.
