About this home
Enter into the gracious front to back hall from either the front or rear door of this circa 1781 Colonial town home, and step into history. Stunning original architectural details are preserved throughout the home: layered crown moldings, intricately detailed fireplace mantels, arched doorways, 9 ft. ceilings, and a raised paneled staircase. The 1st floor features a large living room with a period fireplace, a kitchen with walk-thru pantry, and a new full bath with large tiled shower stall. On the 2nd floor, each of the two bedrooms has a fireplace, the master with a new en-suite ½ bath. Outside spaces include a privacy-fenced Beacon Hill style garden area and a second fenced in space with pea stone path and lovely perennial plantings. This in-town location is steps away from Cashman Park and walking and jogging trails along the river and less than 5 miles to the beaches. OPEN HOUSE HAS BEEN CANCELLED. THE SELLERS HAVE ACCEPTED AN OFFER.
