About This Home

As of March 2025

Just 3 miles from Newburyport, sits this beautiful 4 bed/3.5 bath home nestled on 3 lush acres! The lifestyle that this home offers is exceptional with a custom designed outdoor space including a new in-ground gunite pool - the private yard is a pure oasis! A very special room is the Sun Room, where many days are spent overlooking the beautiful landscape through floor to ceiling windows. The open layout inside is phenomenal - each room perfectly flows into the next with the gorgeous kitchen being the center focal point. A mud room w/ laundry & 1/2 bath in it, family room, living room and dining room round out the first floor! Upstairs there are 4 generous sized bedrooms, and a beautiful spa like primary bathroom with a custom tiled walk in shower. And there is more! The lower level was expertly designed and finished with another full bath, home gym, bonus living room, home office & built in Murphy bed. Being set back in a serene setting, yet minutes to Newburyport, you can have it all!
