Property Description

Rare opportunity to own a charming circa-1850 Victorian home, prominently situated on historic High Street directly across from Newburyport's iconic Mall. Offered for the first time in nearly 50 years, this cherished family home is ready for its next chapter. Currently configured as a two-family residence, the property offers exceptional flexibility. The second unit, complete with a separate entrance, has not been used as a rental in many years, instead serving as guest accommodations for visiting family members. Opportunities include owner occupancy with supplemental income, multi-generational living, or conversion to a gracious single-family residence with guest or au pair accommodations. Rich in period character, the owner's unit features three fireplaces, beautiful hardwood floors, crown moldings, and timeless Victorian architectural details. A well-maintained slate roof reflects decades of attentive ownership. The grounds offer mature perennial gardens, a charming gazebo, and patio area, creating a peaceful setting for relaxation and entertaining. Two-car off-street parking adds convenience. While the property would benefit from updating, it presents a rare opportunity to restore, renovate, and customize a home with enduring character and remarkable potential in one of Newburyport's most desirable locations.
