Sited on a quarter acre of lush grounds within the highly sought after Olmsted Historic District, this grand home is just steps to Swampscott's oceanfront. This circa 1890’s residence has undergone meticulous renovations to preserve its historical & architectural significance while incorporating modern conveniences throughout. Currently a two-family, it provides a rare opportunity for multi-generational living, as an income generating property or restore to a single family estate. Featuring 7 bedrooms & 3.5 baths over 4 finished floors, this home exudes charm - high ceilings, oversized windows, gleaming hardwood floors, original woodwork & built-ins, ample storage, multiple decks, balconies & a welcoming wrap-around front porch. The lower level offers high ceilings & loads of dry storage. An oversized detached 2 car garage with a heated, finished loft space is perfect for an office, workout area or artists studio. The commuter rail, shopping, schools and so much more are steps away!
