The open floor plan flows seamlessly into the dramatic cathedral-ceiling family room with exposed beams, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and walls of glass overlooking the lush private grounds.A custom Archadeck screened porch with mahogany flooring extends the living space outdoors. A Japanese-inspired stone garden, flowering and fruit trees, specimen plantings, and mature granite stone walls create a tranquil retreat.

The partially finished lower level provides additional recreation or hobby space and two walk-in storage areas. A mudroom with first-floor laundry leads to the attached two-car garage. An irrigation system and custom oversized storage shed add convenience.Recent improvements include fresh exterior paint (2026), a hybrid heat-pump system with buried propane tank (2023), spray foam attic insulation, and three new mini-split systems (2026).

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 3,572 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 80,000 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.
