405 Main Street welcomes you with a two-story foyer that opens to inviting spaces for everyday living and entertaining. On one side, a versatile room offers options for formal dining, an office, or a family room, with a classic chair rail, bay window, and glass pocket doors that separate it from the kitchen. On the other side, the living room features built-in shelves and a pellet stove (which can also serve as an efficient heat source), making it the perfect place to settle in on cozy winter nights. The spacious kitchen offers a breakfast nook, generous eat-in space, and an impressive walk-in pantry, making everyday meals and gatherings easy. Just off the kitchen, the screened porch is a lovely spot for morning coffee or unwinding at the end of the day, overlooking the large, level yard with room for gardening, games, and outdoor gatherings. A mudroom with a walk-in coat closet keeps coats, shoes, and sports gear organized, offering generous storage for life’s daily essentials. The two-car garage adds even more storage space. Upstairs, three bedrooms feature brand-new carpeting, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet and private full bath. Two additional bedrooms share another full bath. The lower level offers space for movie nights, hobbies, and play in the large recreation room, plus a separate spacious area ideal for a home gym. Located just outside the town center, this Acton home offers convenient access to Route 2, shops, and restaurants. Enjoy peaceful walks and the changing seasons at the arboretum, just behind the home. The junior high, high school, and athletic fields are all within a mile. The Acton Communter rail is just down the street. Welcome home.

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 2,721 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 35,866 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.
