Set on 0.6 acres in a wooded lot in Barre, this home offers over 1,700 square feet of living space with 6 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms across three levels, plus a sunroom, an office, and an enclosed porch. The finished walkout basement includes an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) — a separate in-law apartment with its own full bath — making the place workable for multi-generational living or other possibilities. Solar panels have cut electric costs substantially, from $400–$500 per month down to $233 per month, and the home also features 200-amp electrical service, insulated windows, town water, and a 4 year old septic system. From the outside there's just one garage door, but the garage space itself is enormous, with room to serve as a workshop, storage, or a range of other uses, and the paved driveway fits up to seven vehicles. The property also has a large back yard the current owner has used heavily for gardening, along with good frontage on the front yard. New boiler installed December 2022. Be advised main home is vacant however ADU is occupied please do not walk the property without prior authorization.
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 2,386 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 26,136 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
