Listing broker remarks

Elegant and stately, this Federal-style home was thoughtfully reimagined and fully renovated in 2019, artfully blending historic distinction with refined finishes and elevated comfort. Heart pine floors extend throughout three beautifully appointed levels, with multiple gathering spaces, two fireplaces and even some partial water views. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is equally refined and inviting, showcasing a 48-inch Thermador gas range, a luminous quartz oversized island, a generous pantry, and a dedicated beverage station. The adjoining space, currently used as a living room, could be easily transformed into a formal dining area with a lovely fireplace and lots of natural light. Upstairs discover a dramatic family room with exposed beams, fireplace, and room for everyone to unwind and enjoy game night or a family movie. This level also features the primary suite with fireplace, large walk-in closet and spa-like en-suite. The third level offers two large bedrooms with soaring ceilings, generous closets, and a full bath. The finished lower level offers a cozy media room/office and additional bath. Outdoors, a private fenced patio and yard create an intimate setting for alfresco dining, while a one-car attached garage and large shed provide coveted convenience and storage. Ideally positioned near the rail trail, riverfront, marinas, and Newburyport’s acclaimed shops and restaurants, this exceptional residence offers gracious proportions, thoughtful design, and an unmistakable Federal-era presence—a truly distinctive Newburyport offering.— Realty One Group Nest
