    What's special

    Stepping past the white picket fence & through the leafy arbor, this cheerful New England classic awaits. Built at the turn of the last century, this spacious home enjoys delightful flow for everyday living & entertaining, indoors & out. The bay-windowed living room opens to the large dining room/family room with glass sliding doors that open to the large deck. Anchoring the balance of the 1st fl is the large EIK with oak cabinetry, recessed lighting, ceramic tile floors & gas stove. The 2nd fl features three comfortably proportioned BRs & a full bath. The 3rd fl walk-up presents the opportunity to create a true master suite. The finished lower level with full bath offers space for retreat or simply to spread out - home office, gym, media room, play room? The expansive, level yard is fully fenced & features the perfect mix of open sunny space & shade from a grand maple tree. Just 0.3mi to Gallows Hill Park & 1mi to downtown Salem & the commuter rail. A special spot to call home.
