About this home
An unexpected retreat in the heart of Salem! Set on beautifully landscaped grounds, this distinctive Colonial offers a wonderful blend of architectural character, warmth, and modern updates. Exposed timber beams and rich Brazilian cherry floors bring warmth and character to the living and dining areas, while a dramatic vaulted ceiling and multiple skylights create a wonderful sense of openness and natural light in the rear living space. A striking double-sided brick fireplace, with an open hearth on one side and a Vermont Castings wood stove on the other, adds to the home's cozy appeal. Oversized picture windows frame lovely views of the backyard, bringing the outdoors in throughout the seasons. The thoughtfully renovated kitchen features beautiful soapstone countertops, updated cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances. Upstairs, three bedrooms include one with a charming loft space. An expansive deck provides plenty of room for outdoor entertaining, overlooking lush lawns, mature trees, established gardens, and classic New England stone walls. Recent improvements include a newer roof and updated heating and cooling systems. Conveniently located near downtown Salem, shopping, restaurants, and Salem Hospital, this is a home that offers a rare sense of tranquility without sacrificing the conveniences of city living.
