About This Home

As of July 2023

The address may say Lafayette St but come and step inside to experience the calm and quiet atmosphere of this condo for yourself. Unit 5 is located in the rear building, away from the hustle and bustle but still enjoys the benefit of being centrally located near the new and improved Forest River Park, SSU and just moments from vibrant downtown Salem and Commuter Rail. This penthouse unit is bright with an open floor plan & skylights throughout. Spacious living/dining room with cathedral ceilings and a fireplace. Kitchen was updated not long ago and includes stainless steel appliances, butcher block wood countertops and leads to a newly remodeled half bath. Two spacious bedrooms and a large full bath plus a little corner nook ideal for an office or play area. Bedrooms and hallway were just updated with new Oak hardwood flooring. Plenty of storage in the oversized closets & in the basement. Large, common area yard, 2 car parking & pet friendly!
