Property Description
Nestled along the shores of Doctor’s Lake, 42 Dayton Road offers a rare opportunity to own approximately 350 feet of lake frontage on a beautifully positioned 0.57-acre lot just minutes from Yarmouth and Yarmouth Regional Hospital. This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home blends character, space, and waterfront lifestyle in a setting that feels peaceful and private while still remaining highly convenient. Inside, the home features warm hardwood floors, large principal rooms, and beautiful lake views from multiple vantage points throughout the property. The spacious main living areas are filled with natural light and retain much of the home’s original charm and personality. The layout offers flexibility across two levels, with generously sized bedrooms and inviting spaces that could suit a variety of lifestyles, whether as a year-round residence, seasonal retreat, or renovation project with exceptional upside. The home is currently configured as a 3-bedroom, though it was previously used as a 4-bedroom and could easily be converted back depending on a buyer’s needs. Heating is provided by both heat pumps and an oil furnace, offering efficient supplemental heating and cooling alongside dependable central heat. Outside, the grounds slope gently toward the water and provide ample space for gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the waterfront setting. The expansive frontage along Doctor’s Lake creates a striking sense of openness and connection to the water rarely found so close to town amenities. An adjacent 0.44-acre lot is also available for purchase, presenting additional possibilities for expanded privacy, future development potential, or the creation of a larger waterfront estate. Properties with this amount of frontage, character, and proximity to town are becoming increasingly difficult to find. 42 Dayton Road is an opportunity to restore, enjoy, and make the most of an exceptional waterfront setting in one of the area’s most convenient locations.
