A RARE BLEND OF HISTORY, CHARACTER & MODERN LIVING! Step into a true Methuen oasis where the charm of the past meets today’s lifestyle. The City of Methuen’s historic resources inventory identifies the BARN at 510 Prospect Street as dating to c.1850 & is thoughtfully attached to the present (built in 2013) 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home.

Set back from the road behind a white picket fence, the beautifully established grounds are a gardener’s dream, featuring approximately 32 varieties of trees, shrubs & perennials, including a majestic Catalpa believed to be well over 100 years old, mature Eastern Hemlock, Blue Spruce, Japanese Maple & other specimen plantings, offering color & vibrance through every season. Inside, the home’s farmhouse-inspired exterior gives way to a wonderfully open, continuous layout designed for easy living. The kitchen is the heart of the home w/ custom cabinetry, granite countertops, marble backsplash & stainless appliances, opening seamlessly to the family room w/ gas fireplace & slider to the private, elevated deck w/ electric awning w/ remote.

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 2,852 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 23,514 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
