A Rare Opportunity on Salem Common. First Time Offered in 40 Years! Some locations simply cannot be duplicated, and Washington Square East is one of them! Overlooking Salem Common, this top-floor corner condominium occupies a distinguished Federal-era building from Salem's celebrated McIntire Period. Original decorative fireplaces, charming window seats at every window, and gracious proportions evoke the elegance of another century. Offered for the first time in 40 years, this residence is ready for its next chapter. Bring your imagination and a fresh perspective to interiors that would benefit from thoughtful updating while preserving the architectural character that makes historic Salem so special. Adding to the appeal are exclusive rights to the building's attic space, additional basement storage, and a dedicated 18' x 9' parking space, all valuable amenities in this coveted downtown location. Just moments from the Peabody Essex Museum, downtown restaurants, shops, and the waterfront, this is a rare opportunity to make a remarkable piece of Salem history your own. History, location, character, and possibility all in one extraordinary address. NOTE: The seller will pay the anticipated special assessment for exterior brickwork.
