About This Home

As of June 2025

Most developers claim to care about maintaining the historical relevance of a home, yet they usually fall short due to the effort and expense.....well that is not the case at 21 Washington Square. From the minute you approach the house you can see this is not another run of the mill conversion.....just look at the front door and the copper downspouts (yes, that's right, copper downspouts). Walk through your private entrance and you will see an original staircase and beautifully refinished floors. Then of course there is the molding that was recreated down to the last minute detail. Enough about what was preserved......how about what has been added? An open concept on the first floor overlooking Salem Common. The whole second floor is a master suite with 2 walk-in closets and a "spa-like" bathroom. Third floor features two bedrooms and another bath (oh yeah, old floor boards make up the closet doors). Garage, a/c, patio.... A one of a kind gem!
