Occupying 1/2 of a distinguished 1802 home built for Captain Thomas Whittredge, this gracious 3 story, 3BR-2.5 Bath townhouse exudes refined historic charm and thoughtful modern adaptation. Meticulously restored by its current owner-a renowned local craftsman with a deep respect for heritage and quality. Every surface has been carefully revived: original woodwork stripped & refinished, antique hardware restored, the granite foundation & exposed chimney repointed. Modern updates include all new electrical, plumbing, & historically accurate windows. Closed-cell insulation results in a solid, remarkably airtight home. The interior is filled with light and warmth, featuring well-proportioned rooms across all three levels, many enjoying dual exposures. The dry basement, with good ceiling height, offers many options. Outside, enjoy a fenced-in private backyard with deck and bluestone patio. The home includes off-street parking and easy access to downtown Salem and the train station
