About this home

The Residences at Museum Place are the ultimate in downtown Salem living. Take the elevator from this sunny single-level 2-bedroom corner unit down to your deeded 2-car parking and out into the heart of downtown, with the Peabody Essex Museum, shops, and restaurants right in your backyard. Conveniences abound with 2 full bathrooms, kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances, open layout, in-unit laundry, plentiful closets, and additional private storage in basement. High ceilings and soaring windows add to the charm of this beautiful building. There is a reason owners rarely put these units up for sale. Perfect for easily enjoying all that downtown Salem has to offer!
