Welcome home to a classic 1890 Antique Colonial in "Big" Nahant. The wraparound porch gives it that quintessential New England presence, set behind mature shade trees and a brick front walk. Inside, the home offers 1,784 square feet of living space across three levels, three bedrooms, one bath, and six total rooms, with a finished lower level for extra living space. A spacious one-car garage on a 7,362-square-foot lot. Enjoy the lifestyle and coastal charm in Nahant—New England's best-kept secret, just 14 miles from Boston and minutes from Logan Airport. Nestled on a rocky peninsula northeast of the city, this town has a rare, almost island-like atmosphere. Its laid-back community and classic New England charm blend natural beauty with city convenience, all within easy reach of the airport and downtown. Every home has a story and this much beloved house, in the same family for over 50 years, is waiting for it's next chapter! There is space on the lot to add additional parking-see photo

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: 716 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,431 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 7,362 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.
