Storage shed, porch and pergola out back.Route 213, I-93 and I-495 are all minutes away; Boston, southern New Hampshire and the North Shore, same day! A location this connected.

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: 821 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,641 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 36,490 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.
