Listing broker remarks

There's a lot to love about this charming 2+ bedroom home, tucked into a peaceful Newbury neighborhood just around the corner from the Parker River. With 1,062 square feet of thoughtfully used living space, the home feels warm and inviting, with plenty of natural light and a cozy wood stove that makes chilly New England evenings something to look forward to. The living space flows easily into the kitchen, creating a comfortable layout that work equally well for quiet nights at home or gathering with friends. The detached one-car garage is an unexpected bonus. Updated with new windows and insulation, it's currently used as an artist's studio and offers wonderful flexibility as a creative space, workshop, home office, or additional storage. Best of all, public access to the picturesque Parker River is just around the corner, offering an easy connection to the outdoors and one more reason this feels like such a special place to make your home.— Leading Edge Real Estate
