Padanarim is a very special coastal village within the town of South Dartmouth. It’s placement along the shores of the Appononagansett River allowed for this town to build its reputation as one of the main shipbuilding centers in the mid eighteenth century. Padanarim continues to be known for its fine craftsmanship in boat building and is home to the New Bedford Yacht Club as well as other nautical specialty shops. This craftsmanship is not reserved solely for shipbuilding, but clearly extends to home-building and can be seen throughout our new listing at 31 High Street.

The home was built in 1850 and was originally part of a very large estate. This antique house offers an open and airy floor plan, high ceilings, and spacious room filled with natural light.

As a result of the thoughtful restoration that includes many modern amenities while maintaining the essence of its history and craftsmanship, this home presents as the perfect blend of old and new.

There is a very cool barn in the back that could easily be converted into an artist studio, bonus space, or home office with a great upstairs loft offering distant water views. The lush gardens are full of color from season to season.

This home is situated a few short blocks from downtown, the marina and several cool beaches. High street is a very sought after place to live; extremely charming, peaceful, and surrounded by big old trees. South Dartmouth is less than an hour from downtown Boston and is a wonderful alternative to the Cape.

For more information about this incredible home, feel free to come to the open house November 15th from 12:00 till 2:00pm and enjoy some hot apple cider and cookies, contact the listing agents Tony Guthrie or Sharon Mabile, or view our other exclusive South Coast listings by visiting our website.
