53 Willow Street N

Built in 1887 and proudly standing for over a century, this iconic character home sits on an impressive in-town lot, spanning over a quarter of an acre, in one of Acton's most walkable, charming downtown locations. With more than 3,000 square feet of living space and six bedrooms, this grand residence offers room to grow, restore, or reimagine. Inside, you'll be captivated by original craftsmanship rarely seen today: solid wood doors, rich trim detail, and stunning stained glass reflecting a bygone era. The bones are strong, the charm is intact, and the potential is endless. Upstairs, one of the six bedrooms is already equipped with a kitchenette, ideal for multigenerational living, in-law potential, or simply an artist's retreat. Outside, the detached garage and workshop offer space for hobbies or storage, with ample parking and a carport with a pulley system to allow a motor home, high 5th wheel or boat on a trailer to accommodate your lifestyle. Whether you're a lover of historic homes, a savvy renovator, or someone with a bold vision for future development, this property checks every box. And location? It doesn't get better. You're just steps from the Acton Farmers Market, local shops, the library, Robert Little School, and only minutes to Fairy Lake, the GO Station, and everything else this vibrant community offers. An incredible opportunity to own a piece of Acton history - with the space and flexibility to shape its future.
