A unique offering on Rolfes Lane, this 1910 carriage house, which was part of the Perry Estate on High Road, has many historical features like original horse stall finishes, barn doors and even a hitching post. Love how the entire first floor opens up visually to the back yard and beyond. A bedroom and full bath are on the first floor for one level living. Upstairs has cathedral ceilings with original beams in master suite and two additional rooms that can be used for a sitting room or private office as well as two additional bedrooms and another full bath. Such a wonderful collaboration of historical significance, location, privacy and a fantastic location! Walk to downtown Newburyport, bike to Plum Island, close to Spencer-Pierce-Little Farm, Wildlife Refuge and commuter rail.
