7 acres. Quiet street. Solitude, woods and mature trees wrap this one-owner home that has been vacant for years. No heat, no utilities running. Buyers and brokers enter strictly at that their own risk-- substantive mold throughout and collapsed roof is apparent. Septic and well are present -- both are Buyer's responsibility. This property is a demolition -- and also a great opportunity for and best suited for investor Buyers. Roof in places is partially collapsed. Detached garage looks stable and solid. Home looks to be on a cement pad (rather than a basement). Walking and hiking trails nearby. Just a couple minutes' drive from the center of town.

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: 400 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 800 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 304,900 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.
