The 'Bird House,' an Amesbury landmark, has been restored - a stately Queen Anne with a rare round tower and elaborate woodwork in the prestigious Highlands District of Amesbury. Amesbury is hot right nowits location near the Merrimack River and the beach, its fine restaurants and picturesque small-town appeal, and its rock-bottom prices compared to next-door Newburyport make it an excellent place to buy.
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 countertops, 6-burner gas stove, under-counter halogen lighting, pastry / prep center.
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, three to four bedrooms. 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 also 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. Great investment!
