Brimming with history in an idyllic setting, this 4 BR, 2.5 BA, 3428 sq' residence is the epitome of antique charm. Arthur Wesley Dow ran the Ipswich Summer School of Art here. His widow donated the home to SPNEA; they returned it to private ownership w/preservation agreement. Since 1992 owners have meticulously restored the house from the ground up, e.g., replacing casement windows w/double-hung windows, early glass panes, exposing raised paneling and the chamfered summer beam. They retrofitted the kitchen in the '90's and added first floor wing in 2007 w/eat-in kitchen area, main suite w/fireplace+full bath, laundry and mudroom. Wide floorboards throughout/5 fireplaces/2 staircases, walk-up attic. Historic carriage house allows for a vehicle and heated studio space. Beautiful exterior lighting, manicured gardens, private patio and barn grace the 0.85 acre property overlooking the river. Come home to Ipswich w/access to MBTA/Crane Beach/Castle Hill/Riverwalk/Wharf/cultural activities.
