Investors take note of the potential offered by this charming colonial home. Property is being sold as-is. The seller prefers a 60-day closing to allow sufficient time for removal of personal items from the house, yard, and barn. Title V has failed and will be the buyer’s responsibility. The home features partially updated plumbing and electrical systems, including an electrical panel and hot water tank installed approximately three years ago.

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: 664 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,328 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 10,890 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.
