10 Salem St, Methuen

Listing broker remarks

Timeless charm meets everyday function at 10 Salem St, a classic cape perched on a rise and set back on 1.06 acres, framed by mature trees for a private, country feel. A long paved driveway leads to an oversized detached garage with a full loft above, ideal for a workshop, storage or hobby space. Inside, gleaming hardwood floors, original stained wood trim and doors, and classic cast-iron radiators showcase the home's character. The sunny front living room features a graceful staircase and a built-in glass-front china cabinet, while the spacious family room opens through a wide cased opening to the kitchen, a layout made for gathering. The kitchen blends vintage warmth with modern style: a large center island, butcher-block counters, open wood shelving, stainless steel appliances, an exposed beam, a pantry closet and convenient first-floor laundry. The home offers four bedrooms, including generously sized rooms with plush wall-to-wall carpet, plus a full bath with an updated vanity and classic period tile. Ductless mini-splits provide efficient cooling and supplemental comfort alongside gas steam heat. The full, unfinished basement with bulkhead access offers abundant storage and room to expand. Outside, the expansive backyard has plenty of space to play, garden and entertain. City water and sewer. A rare opportunity to own over an acre with character and room to grow.
