About this home
LIVES LIKE A SINGLE FAMILY HOME! This completely renovated 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath residence offers over 2,155 SF, a private fenced yard and its own separate driveway with two off-street parking spaces, plus a private basement offering an abundance of additional storage. Nearly everything is NEW! New roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC with gas heat and central A/C, interior and exterior paint, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring and more. Every major system has been upgraded, offering the character and scale of an 1875 Victorian without the projects of an older home. Inside, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light and rich hardwood flooring complement a brand-new kitchen, three beautifully finished full baths and a flexible 4 bedroom layout with space for a home office, guests or multigenerational living. Unlike a traditional condo, each residence has its own fenced outdoor space and separate driveway and private basement storage allowing it to live independently like a single-family home. The association will share only the building’s master insurance policy, keeping shared HOA expenses limited. An exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking the space, privacy and independence of a single-family home with everything already done. Ideal North Salem location just 1 mile from downtown Salem and the MBTA.

Mack Park, located between Highland Avenue and Marlborough Road, is a residential and park-adjacent Salem neighborhood with tree-lined side streets and a compact, walkable feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mack Park playground and ballfields, where dog walkers, pickup games, and stroller loops set the daily rhythm. Early-20th-century multifamily homes and classic New England singles mix with small porches, tidy yards, and mature shade trees. The nearby Salem Common and the Salem Willows shoreline add green space and salt-air scenery to the routine. Cultural touchstones like the Peabody Essex Museum, Cinema Salem, and The Cabot anchor nights out beyond the blocks. A short hop toward downtown brings independent cafes and shops without changing the neighborhood’s quieter cadence.
