An opportunity to transform a substantial Colonial and create value in an established Dorchester location. Held by the same family for more than 50 years, the home has been lovingly maintained through the decades and is now ready for its next chapter. Offering more than 2,000 sq ft of living space, this property has the size and versatility to make a renovation worthwhile, whether the vision is an investment project or a home redesigned for today’s living. The existing footprint includes generously sized rooms, a fireplace, an all-season family room and a walk-up attic, providing plenty to work with when planning improvements. Outside, a corner lot, paved off-street parking, porch and fenced yard add valuable features that can be incorporated into the property's transformation. The location adds another layer of appeal, with public transportation, T access, parks and highway connections nearby. The home needs work, but that's where the opportunity lies—bring fresh ideas, modernize the interior and capitalize on the space, location and potential already here. For investors, contractors or buyers who recognize the value of a property they can improve and reposition, this Dorchester Colonial offers an exciting canvas for its next chapter.
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 2,042 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 2,581 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
