From 1960 to 2026, 834 Pleasant Street has been the home to a large family. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 & 1/2 baths to accommodate everyone. Plus off the kitchen is a large room known as 'the shed'. It was used for quiet evenings in front of the tv or for gatherings of extended family.....even for a class reunion. Although the house was built in 1840 it is not regulated by the Athol Historical Commission. The lawn area is expansive but the old riding lawn mower has done its job faithfully over the years, and it conveys with the sale. Viewing the property from the street, it is a beautiful sight with the massive stone walls and mature trees. The over-sized garage has space for two vehicles, lawn equipment, workshop, cordwood storage and area for stalls. The old knob and tube wiring has been eliminated and all the new electrical work has been approved by the wiring inspector. Light fixtures and outlets have been replaced. Don't let the thought of upkeep stop you from seeing the beauty of this property which can be enjoyed by family as well as anyone driving by.....it really is a gem.

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 2,728 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 160,736 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.
