About This Home
As of May 2014Having a love of boating the owners spent a number of years looking for the perfect lot with views of the Merrimac and they found it here- with 200 feet of river frontage on the channel side & long views up and down river. With 5000 square feet of living space on 3 levels this is a dream home. The entire second floor is a luxurious master suite with incredible double walk in closet, spa like bath with sauna, den sitting room and master with private deck and views across the river to West Newbury.The main living level is open and airy; the cathedral ceilinged living room has a water fall over the fireplace & opens to a large water view deck. Fabulous for entertaining, the separate family room has a hot tub and bar area is reminiscent of an elegant ski chalet and the two story windows take the in the treetop view. The lower level, is a great in-law, teen or guest suite with 2 more bedrooms, a full bath and a large game room. You'll feel like your on vacation 365 days a year.
