About this home

A hidden gem you'll love coming home to! Offering the ease of first-floor living, this unique two-unit condominium is tucked behind a beautifully converted former chapel and schoolhouse and feels more like a single-family home. With minimal shared wall space, private entrances, dedicated parking, and a low condo fee covering shared master insurance only, it offers the perfect blend of charm, privacy, and convenience. The open-concept floor plan is ideal for everyday living and entertaining, featuring a spacious eat-in kitchen with a large center island, abundant cabinetry, soapstone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a professional gas range. Sliding doors lead to your own private fenced brick patio—perfect for morning coffee, dining outdoors, or relaxing with friends. The thoughtful layout includes two full baths, including a private primary. Just minutes from Maudslay State Park, Newburyport's historic waterfront, marinas, shopping, parks and commuter routes. Don't wait!
