Listing broker remarks

Original 1857 character meets thoughtful modern updates in this Amesbury Colonial on a corner lot. The three-season sunroom is a standout feature, offering a light-filled bonus space that extends the living area toward the yard. Wide-plank floors, period moldings, exposed beams, and built-ins showcase the home's historic charm. Recent renovations include custom barn-door closets and fresh finishes in the primary bedroom, along with updates to the first-floor full bath. The main level features a 12x20 living room, a separate 15x11 dining room, and a 18x14 kitchen. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a spacious 20x12 primary bedroom. Natural gas forced-air heat, town water, and town sewer provide convenient utility services, while the above-ground heated pool adds a great outdoor feature for warmer months. Vinyl siding, an asphalt-shingle roof, a full basement, and a circular paved driveway with ample parking for up to four vehicles. Conveniently located near downtown Amesbury shopping, dining, and major commuter routes including I-495 and I-95.— Lillian Montalto Signature Properties
