    Welcome to 25 Bennett Street, a truly special Manchester-by-the-Sea home where character, comfort, light, and location come together. Set on beautiful grounds moments from the heart of the village, this three-bedroom home offers a wonderful sense of space and warmth, with two full bathrooms and a half bath, beautiful hardwood floors, a formal dining room, and an abundance of natural light throughout. The home has an inviting, comfortable quality that makes it equally suited to everyday living, entertaining, and enjoying the quiet moments that make a house feel like home.Outside, the beautiful yard offers room to relax, garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the changing seasons. There is something particularly appealing about having a lovely piece of land while being able to walk to nearly everything that makes Manchester-by-the-Sea so special.The lifestyle is exceptional. From 25 Bennett Street, the village, harbor, Singing Beach, restaurants, shopping, and commuter rail are all within walking distance. Start the morning with coffee in the village, spend the afternoon at the beach, stroll to the harbor, meet friends for dinner, or take the train into Boston. It is a rare combination of coastal beauty, village convenience, and easy access to the city. Manchester’s highly regarded public school system is also consistently recognized among the top 10 in Massachusetts.And then there is the history. Dating to circa 1674, 25 Bennett Street is believed to be the second-oldest surviving home in Manchester-by-the-Sea and one of only 61 surviving homes in Massachusetts dating from 1660 to 1700. The house began as a half house and evolved through the generations into a classic New England saltbox. More than 350 years later, its story continues- not simply as a remarkable historic home, but as a beautiful place to live and experience the very best of Manchester- by- the-Sea.
