Some properties simply cannot be recreated. Set on more than 1.3 acres along historic Old King’s Highway, this distinctive four-bedroom antique offers a rare combination of Cape Cod character, a magnificent two-story barn, sandy frontage on Scargo Lake and a charming screened boathouse at the water’s edge. Thoughtfully updated over time, the home blends original details, two staircases, unexpected nooks and two long enclosed porches with a beautifully renovated kitchen featuring a bank of windows overlooking the grounds and lake beyond. Follow the gently sloping path through the trees to clear water, a sandy shoreline and sweeping views toward Scargo Tower. Swim, kayak, paddleboard, fish or enjoy quiet mornings beside the lake. The property has also served as a successful seasonal retreat, recently renting for approximately $5,500 per week. The home may continue to evolve, but the acreage, lakefront setting, antique barn and magical boathouse are nearly impossible to duplicate.

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 2,850 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 57,064 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
