NEW PRICE, NEW OPPORTUNITY PROPERTY! Own a distinctive piece of Saugus history with this authentic 1742 post-and-beam antique, originally built for Parson Roby. Offering 2,606 sq ft of living space, this 4-bedroom home is filled with classic New England character, including exposed hand-hewn beams, wide-plank hardwood floors, period fireplaces, and architectural details rarely found in today’s homes. Set on a generous 20,909 sq ft lot, the property offers plenty of outdoor space along with an inviting farmer’s porch. A detached barn adds another dimension to the property, providing valuable space for a workshop, studio, home office, storage, or potential future uses, including an ADU, subject to local approvals. This is an opportunity for a buyer with vision to preserve the home’s historic character while making thoughtful updates for today’s lifestyle. Conveniently located near Saugus Center, shopping, restaurants, parks, and major commuter routes with easy access to Boston and the North Shore. If you’ve been looking for something beyond the ordinary, 39 Main Street offers history, space, character, and possibilities that are increasingly difficult to find.

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 2,606 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 21,087 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
