Offer deadline 12pm Monday. Welcome to 8 Selwyn Road, a spacious 4-bedroom home on a nice-sized corner lot in one of West Peabody’s most sought-after residential neighborhoods. The big-ticket items are already done: new roof (2023), 8 replacement windows (2020), heating system (2018), central AC, freshly power-washed vinyl siding, and a Basement Systems waterproofing solution. That leaves the fun part for you. With some cosmetic updating, this home is a great opportunity for a buyer with vision to add their own style and build equity along the way. Step inside the entry room, where cathedral ceilings and double sliders open to the deck, a natural spot for morning coffee or summer cookouts. The fireplaced living room sets the scene for cozy evenings, and the large family room gives everyone space to spread out. A first-floor bedroom and full bath offer flexibility for guests, a home office, or one-level living. Upstairs you’ll find three more bedrooms and a renovated 3/4 bath featuring a tiled walk-in shower with glass door and a new vanity. The 2-car attached garage adds convenience through every New England season. West Peabody offers the best of both worlds: a quiet residential setting with quick access to Routes 1, 95, and 128. Pick your own fruit and grab fresh cider at historic Brooksby Farm, take in the trails and foliage along the Independence Greenway, and shop and dine at nearby MarketStreet Lynnfield. An easy commute to Boston and the rest of the North Shore makes this a location that’s hard to beat. Major updates done, a fantastic neighborhood, and room to make it your own. Bring your ideas and make 8 Selwyn Road home!
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.
