This month’s feature home is nestled where history was made. A quintessential New England home, built in 1781, it boasts charm, elegance, and authenticity. Continuous updates with modern-day conveniences blend the old and new, allowing the next family to take pride in its preservation.
Located in a community once referred to as the best-kept secret on the coast of Massachusetts, this historical property has just become available, but you better act quickly; in today’s real estate market, a property of this significance will not last long.

Within the confines of Russells Mills Village, part of a community once referred to as the best-kept secret on the coast of Massachusetts, the home is in proximity to the picturesque Paskamanset and Slocum rivers at the intersection of Russells Mills and Horseneck roads.

Also nearby is a general store dating to the late 18th century and waterfalls, where many have proposed marriage and children journey on bicycles for a day of exploration.

The location remains rural and enchanting, close to roadside fruit and vegetable stands, working dairy farms, and orchards; the list of the area’s neighbors.

Each season is unique along the coast; minutes from Horseneck Beach, a State Reservation, Demarest Llyod State Park, and a private beach known as Barney’s Joy allow a different perspective of nature’s beauty and a chance to experience it at will.

Russells Mills Village boasts a past in industries during the 18th and 19th centuries. Even though the British burned and pillaged, roughly 40 buildings—wood-framed, remaining from the era; in fact, one home, thought to have been built in 1670, has survived.

The Village was once recognized for its processing of grain and lumber. With nearby Padanaram and New Bedford harbors nearby, businesses thrived—it was the hub of activity.

Also significant to the area is the Apponegansett Meeting House, set on 14-acres of land; it has a cemetery and the remains of other buildings from the era. The structure dates to 1791, while the land’s use goes back to when the Quakers first settled the area in 1664.

This month’s feature home is nestled where history was made. A quintessential New England home, built in 1781, it boasts charm, elegance, and authenticity. Continuous updates with modern-day conveniences blend the old and new, allowing the next family to take pride in its preservation.

Don’t let the age distract you from a closer look; it is a solid home and has been continuously upgraded with improvements such as air-conditioning, updated windows, new appliances and counters, a new roof, upgraded electrical system, alarm system, new paint (interior & exterior), ungraded antique kitchen stove and shingled.

Its antique surroundings offer gracious living. The floor plan shows an ample 2,325 square-feet of living space accented with stunning architectural details. The home includes a spacious kitchen, pantry, master suite with bath and walk-in closet, formal living and dining rooms with fireplaces, and three bedrooms on the second floor offering views of the river.

There is also a den at the lower level with a fireplace and an attached two-car garage.

For sailors, Padanaram Harbor and sweeping views of Buzzards Bay and the Elizabeth Islands make this hard-to-find home a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Located at 13 Horseneck Road in South Dartmouth, it is offered at $879,000 by Anne Whiting Real Estate, 250 Elm Street, South Dartmouth, annewhitingrealestate.com.
