Updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial with a 2-car garage and 4-stall barn on 5.6 acres along a scenic dead-end road. The stunning new kitchen features quartz countertops, new cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. The main level offers formal living and dining rooms with hardwood floors, a cozy den with fireplace and slider to the oversized deck, plus a mudroom, first-floor laundry, and half bath. Upstairs you'll find a spacious primary bedroom, three additional bedrooms, and a full bath. The lower level includes a ¾ bath and plenty of storage. Outside, the barn is equipped with electricity, water, 4 stalls, tack room, wood chip stall, paddock, and second-floor hay loft, offering excellent potential for equestrian or hobby farm use. Additional updates include a heating system (2014), generator hookup, new roof (2019), and new garage doors (2019). A rare opportunity combining modern updates, acreage, and versatile outbuildings. Located next to Scott Road, the 150 acre Crocker Conservation area offers a gateway to 2,500 acres of protected land, abutting the Audubon Flat Rock Wildlife Sanctuary and over 2,000 acres of watershed land owned by the City of Fitchburg.

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 2,220 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 243,916 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.
