Welcome to 14 Thoreau Road, a beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial offering more than 2,300 square feet in Acton’s beloved Robbins Park neighborhood. The main level unfolds with two distinct living spaces: a cozy room tucked just off the mudroom and a gracious main living room with a fireplace and direct access to the screened porch—the perfect setting for morning coffee, summer dinners, or a quiet evening surrounded by nature. A sun-filled kitchen, formal dining room, and mudroom with direct entry from the two-car garage create an effortless everyday flow. Upstairs, four generously proportioned bedrooms include a spacious and private primary retreat. The full basement offers abundant storage and wonderful future potential. Set on nearly half an acre, the home also features a large driveway and a peaceful yard with room to gather, garden, and play. Robbins Park residents may join the neighborhood pool, adding to the neighborhood’s special sense of community. Enjoy easy access to Acton’s shops, restaurants, commuter rail, and schools, with the storybook charm of Concord just minutes away.
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 2,505 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 20,250 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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
