1886

Built in 1886, this three bedroom, two bath Colonial sits on a generous 1.39 acre lot in Massachusetts. The home offers 1,218 square feet of living space across a classic Colonial layout, with a style that reflects its historic origins. The property provides ample outdoor space with room to breathe and privacy that is increasingly rare. With its traditional character and solid bones, this single-family residence carries the quiet charm of New England craftsmanship. The lot size offers meaningful potential for gardening, outdoor living, or simply enjoying the land. A straightforward, honest home with history behind it and room to grow into. An efficient, overproducing solar system provides excellent energy savings and added value.

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: 609 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,218 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 60,436 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.
