Offered for the first time in over 70 years, this rare waterfront home on Union Pond presents a unique opportunity to enjoy year-round recreation in a peaceful natural setting. Set on a scenic 1-acre lot with direct pond access, spend your days kayaking, canoeing, fishing, or ice skating right from your own backyard. Watch bluebirds from the expansive deck, paddle across the water at sunset, or simply relax and take in the tranquil views. Inside, the flexible floor plan offers 3 bedrooms, plus a bonus room ideal for a home office, playroom, or hobby space. A main-level bedroom and full bath provide added convenience and versatility. The sun-filled living room features a cozy fireplace and opens to a spacious dining room, while the cabinet-packed kitchen offers plenty of room for an island or casual dining area. Major recent improvements include two beautifully remodeled full baths, a brand-new septic system, electrical panel, boiler, hot water heater, sliders, and flooring. Combining waterfront living and significant updates, this is a rare chance to make this beloved longtime family property your own.

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: 815 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,630 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 46,173 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.
