West Peabody, located between Lynnfield Street and the Ipswich River corridor, is a residential and commercial Peabody neighborhood with wooded edges and a retail spine. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Route 114 (Andover Street) and Lynnfield Street junction, where plazas, local eateries, and everyday errands cluster in a steady hum of traffic. Housing reads as mid-century ranches and split-levels on curving streets, with pockets of newer builds near main roads. Brooksby Farm anchors the seasonal rhythm with orchards, a farm stand, and open fields. The Northshore Mall area adds big-footprint shopping and dining without defining the quieter side streets. Trails and water views appear near the Ipswich River and the edges of Lynn Woods Reservation.
