1834

The Jason Mixter House c. 1834 is a classic high style Greek Revival home with Colossal Doric Order columns at the front. The interior is filled with spacious grand rooms, lofty ceilings and elegant moldings throughout. The main house has 12 rooms featuring sunlit spaces with floor length windows, 8 fireplaces all remarkably preserved with the historic detail intact. A connected cottage (converted from an attached barn) has five rooms and could be restored for a 2nd dwelling or other uses. There is an attached carriage house with 4 large bays plus workrooms and a detached two car garage. This home is ready for a significant restoration with mechanical systems that need updating, including the replacement of the septic system (design in hand). Set on 3+ acres offering lawn, gardens, mature trees and stone walls, it is just a short walk to the town common. Come discover why Hardwick is considered by many to be a quintessential New England Community.

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 7,384 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 137,127 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.
