The Parker Bull House, circa 1754, is one of the oldest historic homes in Essex. Located in Ivoryton overlooking the Falls River, this stately home is a unique blend of original antique features with updated modern amenities. The large sunny kitchen has granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, hardwood floors, and is adjacent to a spacious pantry/laundry room, heated sunroom, and a covered porch. The living room has a large fireplace and antique wide board floors, leading to a formal dining room with another fireplace and beehive oven. A parlor serves as a comfortable family room, and there is also a powder room on the first floor. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a wood-floored bath with a glass shower, plus two additional bedrooms and another updated bathroom. A large attic has plenty of room for storage, and a back staircase leads to the kitchen. The property also includes a 3-bay garage, outbuilding, and original outhouse on 1.6 acres.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
