About This Home

As of May 2026

Opportunity for a fresh start or major renovation! Rare Nipmuc Pond waterfront, wooded 0.23-acre lot with direct lake access. 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage (1,280 SF) set on a tree-lined street with minimal traffic, this home offers a sense of privacy and potential. Property is in need of complete rehabilitation. Level lot with mature trees and potential for a private dock. Bring your contractor and vision—this is the waterfront parcel Mendon rarely sees. Cash buyers or rehab-loan only—conventional financing will not work. Also listed as MLS# 73484202
