Bring your ideas and build equity in one of Salem’s most sought-after neighborhoods! Originally the carriage house for the neighboring Lafayette Street home, this circa-1900 home is full of charm and possibility. Step onto the front porch and into a generous entry hall with coat closet that flows into a living room featuring hardwood floors with a beautiful octagonal inlay design and solid wood pocket doors. The dining room offers a newer Andersen slider overlooking the sweet backyard, and just beyond is a flexible bonus room. Once the front porch, it now becomes a perfect home office, den, bedroom, or creative space. The kitchen runs along the left side of the home, complete with water views from the sink. A full bath finishes the first floor. Upstairs, three former bedrooms have been combined into a spacious cathedral-ceiling primary suite with adjoining 3/4 bath. Driveway and a backyard shed add everyday ease. A rare opportunity in a location you’ll love!
