Enjoy MA's St. Patrick's Day Parades At These Homes

MASSACHUSETTS — St. Patrick's Day in Massachusetts is more of a season that it is a one-day holiday.

That's especially true on Cape Cod and in Worcester, where the communities are set to host a St. Patrick's Day parade one week early.

In Yarmouth, the parade is scheduled for Saturday at 11 a.m. while Worcester will host the parade on Sunday, giving state residents two opportunities to make the 2024 holiday a two-weekend event.

For this week's real estate column, we pictured having a home in these two places to serve as the home base for your weekend St. Patrick's Day events. Here's what we found:

9 Pennstar Ln., South Yarmouth, Mass.

Access to the parade route and outdoor space to continue the festivities after you leave the parade were paramount to the selection process on Cape Cod.

This Pennstar Lane home is just steps from North Main Street, and features a large backyard perfect for barbecuing and socializing with friends.

And, if it's a particularly nice spring day, you're under three miles from beach access.

74 Monadnock Rd., Worcester, Mass.

Just a five minute drive to Elm Park — roughly the end of Worcester's Sunday parade route — this Monadnock Road residence is on the market for the first time in over five decades.

Don't let the snowy photos fool you, much like the Cape Cod home above this Worcester residence has a great outdoor space to keep the festivities moving after the parade. Even a chilly spring day won't stop you, as a beautiful firepit highlights the backyard.
