    What's special

    The Joseph Ross House. Nestled in the heart of the renowned McIntire Historic District between Lynn and River Street, you'll find this charming 1795 antique colonial with modern upgrades. Period details include recently refinished wide-pine flooring throughout, exposed brick, four working fireplaces, raised paneling, period moldings, and exposed beams. Updates include granite countertops, stainless six-burner range in eat-in kitchen, recently painted interior and exterior, large bathrooms, laundry room, and spacious walk-in closet. Option to use office as a pass-through bedroom. Outside you'll find a beautifully landscaped garden featured on the 2017 Garden Stroll, stone walls, Beacon Hill-style dining patio, and a cobblestone drive with two off-street parking spaces. Ideally located just blocks from the commuter rail, library, and all that downtown Salem has to offer. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained home in this famed historic district. Don't miss out on this one!
