On sheltered Eel Pond, with a large, licensed deepwater dock and direct access to Vineyard Sound and Buzzards Bay, this waterfront property presents a rare opportunity to create your own Woods Hole compound. Originally dating back to the1820s, this classic New England home spans three separate dwellings – each with sweeping water views: a main 5-bedroom residence with a separate guest suite, plus two year-round cottages (one 2-bedroom and one 1-bedroom). Located on the village doorstep, with ample off-street parking and seclusion, you are moments from restaurants, shops, ferries, beaches, the vibrant harbor and renowned marine science institutions. Position, potential and provenance – and available for the first time in 70 years – this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to establish your own Woods Hole legacy in a premium Cape Cod waterfront community.

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 3,749 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 15,246 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
