Description

Grand single family townhouse on historic Chestnut Street in Salem. Started life in 1845 as a Greek Revival, later updated Colonial Revival details which has yielded a house with a rarified material quality...fluted pilasters, hand carved mantels, rich paneled wainscotting, mahogany windowsills, and the most delightful old-world butlers pantry. The whole house imparts a sense of enduring and elevated quality. Restored and updated to the highest standards: significant rewiring in the last year, 2 zone c/ac, recent new roof, custom baths, 4 zone irrigation & exterior lighting, & custom copper gutters, to name a few. The outdoor spaces are artfully designed for beauty, functionality and low maintenance. Located at the upper end of Chestnut St, lined with 19th century mansions built durin g the heyday of Salem’s seafaring trade. Minutes from downtown Salem and the train. This is a rare offering of a turnkey home in a completely intact 19th century New England setting.
