Property Description

The Pound Keeper’s Cottage (c. 1775), in the village of Russells Mills, South Dartmouth, Massachusetts, is for sale – the second time since 1958. This country house retreat, cosseted by meadow and woodland, is complemented by the coastal estates, conservation lands, and historic farms, which are so evocative of the New England landscape. Its proximity to Boston, Providence, and NYC makes it an ideal getaway or a full-time residence. Vintage features include painted, old-growth flooring, exposed ceiling beams, panel doors with period hardware, and historic mantelpieces. The interior offers a sitting room, dining room, a bathroom with tub, and a well-appointed kitchen. The second-floor features two bedrooms with an adjacent home office. Improvements include a new roof with wooden gutters and copper drainpipes, a Roth stainless steel oil tank, and an updated heating/AC system. With its historic provenance, this significant home is an exceptional offering.
