About This Home
As of March 2021Built in 1725, this four bedroom Federal Colonial home on Washington Square offers an opportunity to relive Marblehead's wonderful history every time you step out your front door and look across at Abbott Hall and the surrounding historic homes on the square. Tastefully updated and carefully maintained both inside and out, the home preserves historical details and moldings throughout. It includes a new kitchen/family room, master bath and closet with cherry cabinetry and washer dryer, and new custom exterior shutters. This home offers a very open feeling with 9 foot ceilings, roof-top deck with harbor views, 2 tiered yard plus a brick driveway. In addition to the 4 bedrooms, the large room on the 3rd floor now serving as an office could also be an additional family room, guest room, or game room. There are 5 fireplaces, one of which has been converted to gas. The attached garage not only has room for a car, but also storage for bikes. (quite unique for downtown.)
