Surrounded by blooming gardens, rock walkways, and thoughtfully designed stone patio and walls, this timeless Greek Revival antique embodies classic New England charm in the heart of West Newbury. Offering just over 2,400 sq. ft., the home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and six fireplaces, with pine flooring adding warmth and character throughout much of the interior. Abundant windows invite natural light throughout the home, while a first-floor office and third-floor walk-up attic provide additional space and flexibility. The property is further distinguished by a three-level king post barn with an attached two-level barn, along with a garden area tucked behind the home. Sidewalk access leads toward the town center and Pentucket Regional School District. Available for the first time in nearly 50 years, this is a rare and special offering. Offers due Tuesday 4/28 at noon with 24 hour review period.
