Restored with Respect
The "Bird House," an Amesbury landmark, restored. A grand Queen Anne with a rare round tower in the prestigious Highlands District. The Grand Queen Anne designation indicates those few houses with the most elaborate woodwork of the period.
MODERN UPDATES: High-efficiency furnace, central air, two full updated baths, updated electric and plumbing, new storms, insulation. Downstairs family room, upstairs laundry. Custom mahogany kitchen with granite and cook's 6-burner gas stove.
OLD-TIME CHARM: Magnificent carved staircase, beadwork between the two parlors, carved and tiled fireplaces in living room and master bedroom suite. Tin ceiling in kitchen, mahogany throughout. Two wonderful working fireplaces, two parlors, formal dining room with pocket doors, large welcoming kitchen. Original stained glass windows, gleaming hardwood floors. Upstairs artist studio with sink and built-in cabinets.
Excellent neighborhood: Steps to shopping, restaurants, parks, schools, and the town library. Ten minutes to Newburyport, fifteen to the beach, five to the Merrimac River.
Zoned a two-family, this very fine Queen Anne aso has a huge attic and well-lit dry basement with work room, an additional 2500 square feet not included in square footage above. Income, condo-making and expansion potential.
Built to Last
Exceptional carpentry and woodwork throughout. Slate roof has been maintained and is in terrific condition so that it should last another 50 years or more. The tower is built beautifully.The roof on the tower is scalloped slates in excellent condition.
