About this home

Possibly the prettiest house in Ipswich, this stunning antique was completely rebuilt in 2000 and a barn added in 2005. The kitchen has beautiful reclaimed wide pine floors with radiant heat and leads out to a wonderful screened in porch. The living and dining rooms are spacious and with beautiful fireplaces, paneling and a wonderful flow. Set back from the road to Crane Beach, in story book gardens with a view of the marsh. This incredible home was featured in This Old House and also received the Mary P Conley award for exceptional preservation and renovation. Exterior freshly painted and new roof to be installed on house. Fenced in vegetable gardens, 7 fireplaces and a completely rebuilt chimney. Rich in history, has to be seen to be believed.
