1860
Come see the timeless charm of this 1860's Colonial for yourself, where classic character blends beautifully with thoughtful updates throughout. An original exposed brick hearth at the fireplace, clawfoot tub, and original granite exterior steps preserve the character of the home, while updates including maple hardwood floors, wall-to-wall carpeting, fresh paint, Harvey windows, and new lighting fixtures provide the comfort of today. The remodeled kitchen features new cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, updated flooring, and a farmhouse sink, creating a welcoming space for everyday living. Outside, a new 14' x 24' shed with electricity offers exceptional space for storage, hobbies, or a workshop. Enjoy a convenient location less than a mile from the town beach and boat launch, as well as the town center, where you'll find the library, local shops, banking, and other everyday conveniences. Filled with history, character, and thoughtful updates, this is a wonderful opportunity to make a piece of the past your new home.
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 2,023 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 20,038 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
