100% move-in ready! This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath Colonial has been well maintained and thoughtfully updated, including replacement windows (2022), central air and furnace (2021), and a new water heater (2026). Full of character with beautiful wood floors, crown molding, chair rail, and a floor-to-ceiling bow window. The first floor features an open-concept kitchen and dining area with island and bay window, plus direct access to the wraparound porch, along with a spacious living room and flexible first-floor room ideal for an office or additional living space. Upstairs, both bedrooms feature wood floors, with a full bath and convenient second-floor laundry. Outside, enjoy the wraparound porch, fenced-in grassy yard, storage shed, and paved driveway with two tandem off-street parking spaces. Ideally located just 0.5 miles from the MBTA Montserrat Commuter Rail Station, with convenient access to Beverly's beaches, restaurants, schools, shops, and major highways. A well-cared-for home with character, updates, and a fantastic location!
Downtown, located between Beverly Harbor and Beverly Farms, is a historic and walkable Beverly neighborhood with a commuter-rail spine and a waterfront edge. Cabot Street and Rantoul Street concentrate the neighborhood’s character, where independent cafes, galleries, and small storefronts line the blocks near the theater marquee. The Cabot anchors the cultural calendar with live music and film in a restored venue. Montserrat College of Art’s galleries add a studio-minded pulse to the streetscape. Brick commercial buildings and compact side streets frame a day-to-night rhythm around restaurants and bakeries. Pocket parks and the harborfront set a salt-air backdrop for errands and evening strolls.
