About This Home

As of February 2025

This timeless colonial home offers historic character and charm. Inside, the living room and formal dining room showcase gorgeous pine floors, while the spacious kitchen features a beamed ceiling, a large center island, ample countertop and cabinet space, and a cozy fireplace. The family room, with its vaulted, beamed ceilings and glass slider, offers access to the back deck. Upstairs, find three generously sized bedrooms and a walk-up attic brimming with potential. You will love the privacy of the large, flat back yard. Most of the windows have been replaced and there is an oversized, detached, 1-car garage. With some sweat equity, you can make this home your own while enjoying the nearby beaches at Plum Island, the beautiful Merrimac River and vibrant downtown Newburyport.
