About this home

Welcome to “Greene Acres,” a grand Neo-Georgian estate built in 1902 by Peabody & Stearns for Francis B. Greene, son of a New Bedford whaling magnate. Once part of an 80-acre hobby farm, this 12,000+ SF residence showcases Palladian windows, dentil moldings, soaring ceilings, and a sweeping columned entrance hall that sets the tone for its remarkable scale. Expansive formal rooms, sun-filled living spaces, and period craftsmanship reflect the elegance of the Gilded Age. Updated electrical, plumbing, and baths provide modern comfort while preserving significant opportunity for thoughtful restoration. Set within Dartmouth’s Tucker Farm Historic District, the grounds feature a century-old Italianate walled garden with potting house and reflection pool ready for revival. Surrounded by beaches, conservation trails, and coastal charm, this location blends history with lifestyle. Ferry access to Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard and the new South Coast Rail to Boston are just 15min away.
