Built

1940

Built in 1940 and situated on a charming, tree-lined street, this classic three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath Colonial presents an exciting opportunity for contractors, investors, or buyers with a vision. Rich in character, the home features beautiful original millwork, two fireplaces, a traditional floor plan, and a partially finished basement offering additional living-space potential. The property requires extensive renovation but provides a wonderful foundation for thoughtful updates while preserving the timeless appeal of its 1940s architecture. Additional features include a one-car garage and a private backyard with plenty of potential to create an inviting outdoor retreat. Conveniently located within walking distance of neighborhood schools and close to local amenities, this diamond in the rough is ready to be restored and transformed into a true neighborhood showcase.

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 1,800 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 6,913 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.
